bansheefreak05 Posted January 22, 2009 Report Posted January 22, 2009 Just finished rebuilding the quad but when i put on my pro curcuit pipes the left pipe touches the fuel line. I put on a boss intake, v force reeds, and 28 mm pwks...all wich i never had on before. Any one else had this problem the intake is pushing the carbs out to far. The air filters are real close as well. thaks for the help. Quote
gregrob Posted January 22, 2009 Report Posted January 22, 2009 Make the lines longer, reroute and/or tie away from the pipes with zip ties. I run mine through the middle of the intake xover tube and zip tie them. and I'm sure I have less clearance with shearers than you do with pro circuits. Quote
BellicoseBanshee Posted January 22, 2009 Report Posted January 22, 2009 The air filters are real close as well. Get some exhaust heat wraps from Cascade... Quote
Snopczynski Posted January 22, 2009 Report Posted January 22, 2009 Make the line shorter so it gets pulled over towards the carbs. Or take the heat gun, bend it, heat it up, then cool it down. It will stay bent after it cools. Quote
Dinner Posted January 22, 2009 Report Posted January 22, 2009 Make the lines longer, reroute and/or tie away from the pipes with zip ties. I did the same thing, just used zip ties to pull the hose away from the exhaust...and that is with my 33 PWK's Quote
AKheathen Posted January 22, 2009 Report Posted January 22, 2009 i just bent my silencer pipes so that the angle where they join makes the pipe clock into clearance. i've heard of shimming the frame mounts too. Quote
boneyardbanshee. Posted January 22, 2009 Report Posted January 22, 2009 you bent your stingers to clear fuel lines? Quote
AKheathen Posted January 22, 2009 Report Posted January 22, 2009 you bent your stingers to clear fuel lines? the angle where the stinger meets the pipe will moove the pipe in or out Quote
05.Banshee.SE Posted January 22, 2009 Report Posted January 22, 2009 Uh...1 zip tie fixed ALL of my wire/pipe clearance issues...no need to bend the pipes... Quote
2001Stroker Posted January 22, 2009 Report Posted January 22, 2009 I zip tie everything also. But I cut a small peice of rubber hose, and put it over the fuel line to keep it from rubbing the pipe. Quote
87sheerips Posted January 22, 2009 Report Posted January 22, 2009 I zip tie everything also. But I cut a small peice of rubber hose, and put it over the fuel line to keep it from rubbing the pipe. I do the exact same, it works great! Quote
ClimbAnyHill Posted January 22, 2009 Report Posted January 22, 2009 Like Snop said, cut the hose shorter so it pulls in & away. I had similar prob with T5's & Boss intake too! Stock intakes work just fine though but I did need 3/8 spacers for that left 28mm carb bowl to clear the clutch arm. Quote
