    Can somebody please tell me what the small boxes are that go into my airbox to carb boots???? They have clear line hooked up to them and come out of a nipple at the bottom of the bowl. The bike wouldnt start and I just got new coil packs on it and it runs again, but is bogging out at around 1/4 throttle. If I can get it past around 2000rpm it will run but mostly just boggs on initial take off. Sorry I couldnt flip the picture.

    reduce the size to 500x500 pixels max, using the photo editing software. I use Microsoft Photo Editor because it came with the computer.

    Sounds like a Variation of:

    "Dial-A-Jet"
    They shoot Fuel into the Intake Air Stream as a lame way to "Re-Jet" and try to overcome a Lean Condition.

    I've never installed the Nozzles ... but, have removed a couple a long time ago.

    Awesome thanks for the info. Do they work because so far I have seen no fuel draw through them. It must only happen at high rpms which I cant get the bike to move yet without dying. I have rejetted and this bike still is giving me all kinds of trouble. Just replaced the coil packs and its running again but just boggs hard around 2 to 3k. Once above that she runs great. I do have to run the bike with the choke on or it dies.

    They need Special Bowl Drain Screws to function.
    Then, they present more trouble than they are worth.

    Use Photobucket.com and post a photograph sized Medium.

    I would think that the drain bowls would be low on fuel do to the fuel leaving the float to go up through the dial a jet. So you suggest going with which jet then in replace of the dial a jet????? I want the best kit.
