    Hi i just want to ask if anyone else here ĺ putting a "1 way valve" in the petcock vacume line? The small rubber hose that connects to the intake manifold in my bike connected to carb #3. my sparks plugs #1 & #2 cylinder is always carbon filled. Float level is set at 3mm below line my valve shims at in specs..

    I thought maybe my carbs drinking problem can be cured by starving her of fuel thru the vacume supply line that opens and close the petcock.. so macgyver does it again .. now all 4 plugs are nicely TAN color! Will post pics later.

    What do you guys think? Have i done a really stupid thing here?? Will this damage my engine in the long run?? I have only used it for 1 week now maybe 200kms +or-.
