I will get it hooked up right away. I did try to blow thru it and suck on it and it seemed like a dead space. I'll let you know how it acts when hooked up. thanks john.

JR.........plugged it into vacuum. have 3 ports on the manifold. just got back for a ride. can't say I noticed any super burst of power but I got the feeling that it is right. don't know how to explain it but it feels right. went out for a nice ride, put about 20 miles on it. no traffic at this hour and the deer went to bed! It didnt want to start this morning and this afternoon I used my own advice to find a vacuum leak...spay can of ether as it was first can on the shelf. have seen wd40 work too, just about any thing that burns in a spay can does it. anyway I had used tigon tubing for a vacuum line and it had loosened up and was leaking bad. got all rubber inthere now. I rode my riva180 to town to get the line this afternoon. wish i had the little bit more power it has. I think if I could choose an ideal scooter it might be a riva200. I just can't get to like the 250's with the great big hump in the middle of the floor boards. Thanks John

I don't think WD-40 works any more, they used to use propane in those for a propellant but they stopped that a few years back. I had used it for starting fluid in the old days, won't work now.

I stay pretty close to home these days. My left leg is killing me after riding 20 miles. I have a hip replacement in the left but the pain is coming from my back bone .... cyatica I think. I get sitting or standing different and it slowly goes away. the jacuzi sounds right though! have fun. John
