Rubber boots from carburettor to intake manifold

Post by livingjft »

Hi folks, hoping someone can help me out...

I've just removed the carby from my 98 XT600E. I think the rubber boots that join the carby to the intake manifold need replacing. I've done a search for the parts, and almost every search comes back with one of the boots having some sort of hose connector on one of them (see https://kedopartsaustralia.com/intake-m ... f-13586-01 as an example).

The boots that are currently on mine don't have any such connector piece so I'm a little confused on what needs to be replaced.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Rob

From what I've seen, I think all aftermarket ones are like that, and there's a small cap that you can buy separately to close off the air hose connector.

Make sure you don't get restricted ones.
