Yes Sir, Both those hoses are connceted to the carb, and it is the overflow hose that is leaking. I have ordered a float measuring tool, but I don't know what the measurment or spec is for the floats.

Just done a search on here and the float setting is 8mm this should be in the manual as well

I just finish re-building the carburetors on my 1992 gl1500a, and have ran into more then my fair share of problems, starting to regret buying this bike. First it was getting the vaccuum sliders to seal correctly, and now I have fuel flowing out the bottom of the bike like rain!!! I believe it's te...

I wasn't aware the radio was that waterproof, having dismantled it for the aux input mod, didn't look like it was able to withstand torrential downpour, I bow to your superior knowledge. The town I go to in England, you would come back to your bike and find all the radio knobs missing. But the poin...

While its apart just try the DB401s. sit the housing in place and try the speaker

Ok, I'm a bit confused now. Are the rear speakers supposed to be mounted BACKWARDS? I have them currently mounted where the speaker is pointed towards the open grill and the back/magnet is facing outwards which is what fits into the bottom cavity. (and in my case is bumping against said cavity and ...

I cant quite see from your photo but is the speaker fitted between the chrome cover and speaker housing. there is about 1 7/8" clearance for the speaker to fit mine are fitted like this 000_0781.JPG 000_0783.JPG If it is fitted like this it will add about 1/4" to the length and the housing and it wo...

Terryt Can you show me a schematic or give me more info. On what parts to get. I thought of another btry but not sure the best way to use it. I have changed most of the bulbs to LEDs but not all yet. Main draw on mine i think the headlight, and two small radio amps. Kerry This is the system I used....

Thank you. www.gl1500auxilaryshifterpivot.com I'll include a seal for free. Just mention goldwingdocs.

Hi I have looked at this on your website re shipping. can you tell me the price for shipping to the with custom duty to the UK Portsmouth Hampshire

Thanks

When I say rebuilt, I mean I removed all the jets that are removable EXCEPT the pilot screws. I didn't touch the pilot screws. I flushed every passage using carb cleaner and air pressure. I visually confirmed the jets passages are open. I replaced the float valves including the needles and the floa...

I am not sure what air pilot screws are. I am assuming you mean the pilot screws and like I said, I didn't touch them. When you say you rebuilt the carbs twice. did you completed strip them all jet taken out cleaned all the jet and small holes and air ways ? The two air jet in the front of the carb.

What did you set the air pilot screws setting to

Is there a alarm fitted. There was one on mine didn't know it was there until I had the fairing apart

thanks for the reply . It is the original master cylinder. I have been in there before but can't remember if it 1/4" or 5/16".thought some body might remember. I would like to have it on hand when I start the project this winter.

Hi Just checked mine and its 5/16"

I think I still have my old one in the garage. I will have a look and check the size and post

The leaking coolant sits in the bottom of the front cowl. so it may not show a damp patch on the ground. and when your riding it will be blown out. you may notice it if you move the bike before riding it or working on it.

It may be easier if you removed the hose and measured it.
As its a trike and they may not have used the original goldwing brake master cylinder

Here is the story: bought a 88 GL1500 this past Feb. It needed some work, tires, brakes, LCD screen, fuel petcock, etc. She ran but had the hesitation then giving throttle. I took the bike over to my dad's to rebuild the carbs. He done carbs before and thought this could be a nice father son thing....

On my 89 main colour is candy winebury lower panels are darker colour

Looking at the ETM for an 1989 and a 1995 the C10 white plug has 22 wires. you said your has 24 wires.

If you haven't already done it. I would isolate and disconnect all the wires that are running accessories or extra light cd or what else is fitted. then start testing

When you refitted the brake master cylinder did you fit the heat deflector plate between the cylinder and exhaust pipe. the fluid is getting hot and expanding causing the callipers to close. also check the front one as there linked it may be binding causing the same effect.

Pull the plugs apart and check the terminals they may need cleaning. seems strange it getting hot and burning there

Hi I had the same or similar problem with my 1989. it turned out to be the carb a slide diaphragm was not sitting in the carb properly they weren't opening when it was reeved up. also the carb to head rubbers were sucking in air. removed the carb refitted them making sure they didn't slip and replac...
