Fuel line

[billmac]

So I found my fuel line had a small crack by the tank and thought I'd change it out. that turn into a job. not really thinking as I started taking things off to change it out and before I knew it half the bike was torn down to get the hose off the fuel filter then I decided to change the filter since I had it torn down then my putor won't connect and I can't find my list of replacement filters so off to the parts store must have look at 50 different filters before we found one that was close but it was metal, by then I didn't care. get home and change it out then I have to put the bike together. I don't have a garage so I'm doing this on the patio knowing I need to be done before dark as all my parts are laid out with the parts and screws that hold them on in nice little piles. get it all back together start the bike and it sounds a little different but better so while it sits their idling I look into the old filter an can see dried stuff inside, so it was a good thing I change it out. took it for a ride a couple of miles and it seems to be a little quicker. Guessing with the hose leak and dirty filter I may have been having a fuel flow problem so now I'm feeling better about changing it all now before I had a break down or no run problem. All is good with the bike and waiting for Comcast to come and check my router out.
