I have a 80 Enticer that "USE" to run mint, but I noticed the fuel lines were a bit brittle and thought I should tackle that sooner than later. Well I decided to go through the KEIHIN carb as long as I'm at it. So pulled it off and ordered up the diaphrams' and gasket's for it. Well it took several weeks to get the parts and the carb sitting on the bench for that time. went through the carb, cleaned and replaced just about everything. Put it on and now I can't get that thing started to save my life. I went through the carb several times just to make sure thing were looking good. One thing I noticed is that there was no fuel in the carb each time I pulled it apart. I'm getting fuel up to the carb but not in it. One thing I was unsure of is if I have the Vacumn line from the crankcase and the fuel line hooked in the wrong spots. there is a brass fitting pointing down that I have the vacumn line to and fuel hooked to the other. Do I have these backwards? If it sounds right, what is needed to get this thing up and running again?

Any guidence is much appreciated, the kids are bugging the hell out of me to get running again and I'm lost as to what to try next.

gas line coming from right side goes to brass(bottom fitting)

The fitting facing down is for fuel. The pulse fitting is usually aimed forward.>>>>
