    GSF400 Vaccum Hose

    Hi Guys,

    Hoping for some help with my Suzuki GSF400.

    I managed to disconnect the vacuum hose that runs from the fuel petcock to the carbs when removing the tank the other day. The issue is that it disconnected from the carb end and I cant see where it should connect to.

    The workshop manual doesn’t really give a clear idea of where I should be looking and I am struggling to find the nipple(?) that the hose connects to.

    Anyone had experience with this before or know of a internet resource that might help me locate it??

    Cheers

    There is most likely a brass looking tube on the intake that it came off. It will be the down stream side of the carbs.

    iirc, the nipple is on #1 (the left most) or #2 rubber intake manifold between the carb and engine.
