mtman Posted July 23, 2008 Share #2 Posted July 23, 2008 I have a note that a NAPA 3011 will work or even a NAPA 3007, although it is for 5/16" hose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobcat Posted July 23, 2008 Share #4 Posted July 23, 2008 Hey guys, what do you use in lieu of a yamaha fuel filter, mine is plugged after a tank with seafoam!!!! Any part #s come to mind As long as the connectors are correct then any fuel filter should work...I've used several different ones over the years....I change my fuel filter when I change my rear tire..

Holly Posted July 23, 2008 Author Share #5 Posted July 23, 2008 Thanks for all the help, now know what to get and where to put it, but found out filter not the problem. One carb is plugged with junk, need to work on that area, looks like fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One carb is plugged with junk, need to work on that area, looks like fun. The first time you have to work on the carbs is a killer. Getting them off took me at least an hour and probably two and then getting them apart, realigned back up and reinstalled took forever. The second time was much quicker as you now know the easy way to disconnect and connect the throttle cables and all the other idiosyncrasies of removing and re-installing the carburetors. I can now have the carbs off the bike or re-installed in around 10 minutes or so. The crankcase breather hose is a real pain to reinstall until you finally come up with the correct long nose pliers and access point. Dick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holly Posted July 26, 2008 Author Share #8 Posted July 26, 2008 Was running seafoam thru it, but found out I fouled a plug, replaced them and it runs great again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
