Reinstalling carburetor 2000 blaster

[primey]

I took the carburetor off my 2000 blaster and cleaned and jet was stopped up completely, but now I am having trouble getting the vacuum hoses back on Any suggestions are links on how to reinstall the carburetor easily and throttle body? Do I need to take off the plastic? The problem I am having is the hose for the exhaust don't want to line back up I thought about hair dryer or dish wash soap. My hands are so big they work well in that tiny area. Also know when I mash the throttle it goes in very easily so I guess I didn't install the throttle body correct either, could some one advice how that lines up. Thanks for any suggestions just trying to fix it myself. Thanks guys..

Could you try to be a little more specific and keep to the point.

Ask a series of questions, rather than hanging them all in the same sentence.

Putting the carb in a bike completely stock is tough.

Not much of an easier way...

Buy a kit to remove the brick on top of the carb (TORS) and that helps a lot, but you cant make fitting the airbox tube on any easier unless you dont have one like me

Remove the fuel tank. You will gain more access making reinstallation of the carb slightly easier.

If you are trying to instal the carb with the fuel tank on then I now understand why its so hard. Removing the tank to remove/instal the carb is a must. Removing the tank is easy, first remove the 3 bolts that hold the front/nose fender on ( 1 on each side and 1 in the front ) pull that off then remove the 4 bolts that hold the tank in place ( 2 in the front and 2 in the back ) pull the gas line/tube that runs to the carb ( leaving the petcock attached to the tank ) then just pull the tank up and off. REMEMBER to turn the petcock off before pulling the fuel line, and a little gas will dribble out when you pull the fuel line off that's in the fuel line/hose which is obviously normal. When I put my carb back on I put the carb into the intake manifold/cylinder side first, then you can gently bend the intake boot ( rear side ) onto the carb. Once both sides are in THEN make sure you tighten the hose clamps good but be careful not to strip the little screw heads.

It's a difficult process that may result in a few cuts, I got a scar or two after removing mine a few hundred times...make sure your clamp is loosened well and take the time to get it on right, don't want any air leaks. Personally, I prefer putting the engine side on first, because it is easier for me, then putting the intake side on

does anyone but me unhook the rear rubber boot from that pesky little peg on the frame ?

it makes the rear boot much more flexible to bend and fanangle it onto the rear of the carb, then re-hook the loop to the peg

I knew I was forgetting something ! That small detail does make things much easier.
