Default 1986 ZL600A Carb hose connectivity issue

Got this 12/85 ZL600A that previous person had the airbox and all the hoses off the carbs in a wad in a bucket. He said you have to hook up a line to the places in between carbs 1&2 and in between carbs 3&4. Two places, "T" them together, place hose in mouth, blow ever so lightly, like, just keep the hose "full of air" and then the bike would start and run. I'd rather just have an idea, short of purchasing the manual (which I can't find on BikeBandit.com). Does anyone have a ZL600A around '86 model and can you snap jpgs of the carbs from several angles so I can know how the vaccuum and other hoses connect and the airbox.

It's a mess. I refuse to hold a hose in my mouth to make it run...

Two places for manuals:
1. Repair Manual Catalog Online - RepairManual.com
2. onlinefreebooks.net

I was thinking of getting one of those but I took a pass.

Fueltap fuel line between #2 &3 carb
Vacuum line hooks to carb. #2
Between 1&2 and between 3&4 are overflows/vents

Carbs 1, 3 and 4 will have caps on the top close to intake rubber used only for sync'ing the carbs.

Ps Rebuild your fuel tap now. Read this
GPZ 900R Fuel Taps

PSS 10 second search at Google Images fro Ninja 600 fuel lines...
