MZ Skorpion Carburetor installation help

Postby Antrap9 » Mon Jul 07, 2014 6:11 pm

After removing the carb and cleaning it a bit due to my Tour stalling upon throttle, I have replaced and fastened it in its original position. The only thing left to do is to reconnect the rubber lines located on the right of the carburetor to their original location. There are two, one longer and one shorter, that lead up from the fuel pump(?), and I need to know where they should be attached before putting the tank back on. Also, the breather hose has a nipple on it, but there are also two on the carburetor (which I assume are for overflow), am I missing something?

Thanks!

Fuel connection is on the left of the carb. The lines on the right are vent if I recall. The 2 overflows are pointing back and up - almost at the riders chest if you sat on the bike.
There is a sorta interconnect hose that goes from the left rear of the left carb to the left front of the right carb. Not sure what it does, but its there.
Cool.

So, where does this valve attach (that I'm pointing to) that's on the breather hose?
