Banshee won't start... missing tube between carburators?

Hi everyone! So I was doing banshee, and all of a sudden, it's rpm slowly starts decreasing, and ends up stopping. At first I thought I hard drained the fuel tank, but there was still some fuel remaining in the tank, so I put the switch on reserve, try to start it, won't start.  I then remembered that the guy who sold it to me told me that if it doesn't start, I should check if a tube might be missing between the carburators. (He told me that because it had happened to his friend). Anyways, here's a picture of my 2 carbs. I'm thinking that there might be a missing tube between the big tube on the right and the choke tube? on the left. Am I wrong or is there really supposed to be a tube there? Thanks.

Giant pile of junk of a boost bottle and those fuel lines would be in the trash can if it was mine.

 

Really? I'm new to Banshees... and 2 strokes in general. Also, I noticed a strange behavior. When I change gears, there is a delay between the time I lift the gear thigny and the time you hear the gear engaging. It takes 1-2 seconds to go into gear, is this normal?

First off you need to stop "doing your banshee". It probably doesnt like that. May have packed the muffler to tight:). Im sorry i just had to say it. (Proofread then click post).lol but as far as your problem im at a loss on that one. Id like to see what the cause is. Good luck with it.
