Mikuini Carb Questions...?

There are two nipples coming off the carb on the firewall side. One on the top and one on the bottom. I plugged both of them off w/a hose and bolt at the end.

I circled both of them in the picture. Does anyone know what they are for..???



Here's a better pic of the nipple on the underside...



Also does anyone know where I can get a rebuild kit for this thing...??

Thanks.

Do a search with the word "Mikuni" as there are threads that have information as to where you can get kits for these.

Can't remember exactly what nipple is for what but you have one for the vacuum advance (if you are using) and the other (thought their were 2) for the OMP.

The one on the bottom is another nipple besides the OMP lines.

I already have those (omp lines) hooked up.

I did search Mikuini alittle back... I'll try again starting w/the link u posted above.

I guess i could pick up a vacuum thing-a-ma-jammie tester... hook it up to each nipple and see exactly what they're pulling if any. Just figured someone might be currently running a Mikuini and just tell me what they did. If you're out there help a brother out...!

Edit: Thanks Doc... that link was perfect.
