So, I put my location, Eugene, because I could really use some one on one help with my 84 GS. The Vacuum diagram makes no sense to me or my friends, and I know that I'm missing a least a couple tubes.
Soo, if you, or anyone you know lives in or around Eugene it would be really awesome if I could get some help and direction. I can DO just about anything, it's just that I don't know where to start at all. It's running now, but (what I was told by one person) is that it's sucking too much air in and killing the engine, I.E. throwing off the fuel/air mix balance.
I can get it started with starting fluid, and if I hold the clutch in it'll run forrrr maybe 15-20 seconds before it dies. If I rev it it'll stay running though.
I've only had it for 10 days, but I've sunken $300 into it already, and I'd like to get it running reliably and consistently.
I just put some carburetor cleaner in the tank. Any advise you can give me would be great. I don't have a way to get it to a mechanic as I just can't drive it anywhere. I replaced the battery and starter. So they're no longer an issue.
Eugene, Springfield, Veneta, any surrounding areas??

 

I'm no longer in the area, but your best bet is to post this in the NW section, so guys in your neck of the woods can help ya. There is some very smart and very nice guys in there. Tell em' hi from me!
Good Luck.
Ray

 

Done and done. Thank you for the advice!
