Lets play a game of what goes where!

Fist off, there are 2 lines that connect to the bowel of my carb, where do they connect to?

Image

Also see one on the front of the carb without a hose, at the bottom of the bowel? do I connect a hose to it? and where does the other end go?

Image

Now there is a nipple for the intake, I think one of the lines from the tank go here, but which one?

Image

im pretty sure the main gas line goes to this brass end here, by all means correct me if im wrong.

Nice job getting it buttoned up! I like it!

Where did you get the carb. from and what is the brand name and size?

You are correct about the brass fitting on the carb. and the nipple on the manifold is for the vacuum line.
Just suck lightly on one of the lines, when gas comes out of the other line then you have the vacuum line.
I'm not sure about the other lines, they are probably drain lines and/or vent lines. I would consult the seller about those. :thumbwink:
Happy Trails! :coolcruise:

The intake has a nipple for the vacuum line. The rest are for drain and vent.

One thing to clairify, on the part that comes out of the tank has 2 lines. One goes down the other comes out on the side. I belive the one on the side goes to the brass nipple on the carb, and the one that goes down is the vaccume line?

The two lines that come out the gas tank one is fuel and the other is vacuum...fuel goes to the brass nipple and the vaccum goes to the barb on the manifold...as for the one on the bottom of the bowl just leave it it is nothing...good luck and hope this helps
