I have an 81 cb650 that i'm hoping to get in shape as xmas gift for my younger brother.

Wonder if any of you guys has a suggestion for replacing the plastic tee fittings that distribute fuel between the two pair of bowls.
Looking for something readily available and inexpensive.

Also welcome any tips for cleaning up these carbs, I have worked on MIC VM and BS series, but these KeiHin are new to me.

Carb throat measures 32mm ID where it couples to head. I did find some 1.5" fuel line that looks like a good start on a new set of holders.

I would take a trip to the local autoparts / hardware store and look their. They usually have a section
of hose couplers and T-Fittings.

Thanks.
Looked at the vacuum fittings but wasn't sure they'd hold up for fuel. It's such a PITA getting the carbs off and on that I don't want to be doing it again, any time soon.

I am pretty sure they are one in the same. I remember looking at what was on my bike , and it looked to be a plastic vacuum
fitting. Maybe go with a brass t-fitting. I know you can get those at a hardware store...

These are vents so they are not imersed (sp) in fuel.
