I have dual redline webber carbs on my 72` 914. First there is an ir line going to carb but nothing going to the second carb. Should there be a hose going to each carb? What is the best way for adjustment. I did go to the redline web page but it does not really say how to setup both carbs. Do I get one set and than go to the second or should I do them together? I have never done this. If you look at the attached picture you can see a clear hose on the right but nothing on the other carb.

you should rotate your picture 90* ccw. if the hose in ? is the clear one it appears to be conected to the oil fill tower. this is one of the methods of drawing off the engine vapors. simple, but not the most elegant. purchase the synchometer/flow meter produced by STE for dialing in your carbs. avail from a host of vendors. the carb writeup at www.aircooled.net is a good one also.
