Did you guys reconnect the short hose back up to the "T"? IS there fuel in the fuel filter? You guys are doing something wrong but I cannot figure out what it is. Ok lets forget about trying to get it to fire Lets get one thing FIXED: 1. On the bottom of the carb there is a DRAIN HOSE run that hose down along side the MOTOR PUT A PAN OR CUP UNDER THAT HOSE. NEXT TO THAT HOSE is a screw turn it COUNTER CLOCKWISE a few times you do not have to take it out some fuel should come out IF THERE IS FUEL IN THE CARB. 2. NOW CRANK THE MOTOR OVER and see if fuel keeps coming out. 3. then go back and turn that screw CLOCKWISE to SHUT THE DRAIN HOLE. Alleyoop Get back on this test. That DRAIN HOSE SHOULD HANG LIKE IN MY PICTURE THE GREEN HOSE:

I just checked that the fuel hose to the filter is down.I readjusted it try to turn the bike over but still no fuel in filter. Should I just buy a new fuel pump & filter?

No MIMI, fuel is NOT FLOWING FROM THE TANK to the fuel filter. IS THERE GAS IN THE FUEL TANK? IF SO try this take the fuel cap off and see if it then fills the fuel filter. The Drain Screw is ON THE SIDE OF THE CARB:

Well if tank is full and no gas is flowing to the fuel filter then the TANKS OUTLET is CLOGGED. Can you see where the GAS OUTLET IS ON THE TANK MAYBE THE HOSE HAS A SHARP BEND TO CONNECT TO IT AND IT IS KINKED.

Well now the FIRST THING is to check out the TANKS FUEL OUTLET FUEL SHOULD FLOW to the FILTER like water. SO something is stopping the gas from the tank to flow OUT. CHECK THE HOSE where it attachs to the FUEL TANK UNDERNEATH. Otherwise you can do everything else BUT WITHOUT fuel getting to the fuel filter and pump no go no matter what you do. Alleyoop
YOu can also get a thin rod or something and try and find the outlet from the top of the fuel tank and maybe clear out the clog if it is clogged from the inside and it IS NOT A KINKED HOSE LINE BY THE TANK.
MAYBE YOU CAN TAKE A COUPLE OF PICTURES OF THE HOSE WHERE IT ATTACHS TO THE TANK UNDERNEATH.

Ok so now you have fuel at the FUEL FILTER. Now take the FUEL HOSE OFF THE CARB and put it in a cup and crank it. Does gas come out in good amount? Alleyoop
