The only vacumn lines on a Maxim 650 is the small line from the fuel petcock that turns it on when there is intake suction. It can be connected to any intake manifold But is usually connected to cyl. # 2 left to right. The 4 vent hoses to the carb tops just hang down the back of the motor.
First thing to check: Disconnect the tiny hose between the check outlet and the engine. Disconnect it at the engine side.
With an airgun, blow in the check hole from outside to engine side.
With an airgun, blow out the engine connection.
Start the engine, check waterflow out of the engine connector. If water, reconnect the hose and check the water at the checkpoint.
If still no water at the engine connection: replace the impeller!
There is a sight glass on the right side below the clutch housing. Put the bike on it's maintenance stand and look at the sight glass, there is two marks that the level will fall between. Do not overfill as it will blow out the air box and clog your air filter.
Check carbs for old gas deposits ussually when gas sits for a while it turns to varnish and it can plug small hoses and lock up small moving parts like floats for example. next time you store the bike for the winter, close the gas shut off and run it till it empties the carburators. Im not a mechanic but I stayed at the Hilton once. Good luck
You will have to check the float level of the carburators and hope you had used compressed air to blow out the jets!

being an xj it will be underneath the carbs,look from the left side of the motor to the right side you should seea round cylinder approx3 inch in diameter thats it,it is easier toget starter out if you take carbs off first
