F3 acts like it runs out of gas in higher gears

a lot of changes were made for sure.

hush k-money, it wasn't my fault I was basing everything off an F2, which btw doesn't even use a fuel pump or those tubes... hell I don't even think the f2 has an engine. It just goes. and people pretend its awesome.

side note, the brackets were mailed out, but it's standard mail so I have no clue how long it's gonna take

Alright, got a ram air duct on order, got the rest of the air box sealed, next question. Where do the lines from the solenoid valve connect to? There are three outlets, the single tube on one side is connected to lines between the first and last two carbs, but the two outlets on the other side run hoses to inline filters, then connect to nothing. Am I missing a canister, I'm guessing they're suppose to go somewhere, but can't find any schematics that show the complete system hooked up, just parts of it. I'd like to have a little talk with the guy who's aborted project this was, he was not a very good wrench.

Circled is the solenoid. The 1 tube that comes out of it goes into the carbs

Thanks for the diagram Kuroshio, one last question, where do the lines connecting to filter #7 eventually connect to? As it sits that filter isn't hooked to anything, and I don't have any of the lines from the filter on.
Thanks!

Those lines begin at the small low speed intakes under the headlight. They eventually go into the air solenoid which is circled (part 15)

Ill guarentee its the soleniod, the manual says switches from one hose at 12 mph and then to the ram air when over 12mph- yours probably isn't engaging properly, or like 1/3 opens which is why it will let you goto 25mph.
