which tube goes to fuel pump?

Won't run? Engine, cooling system, fuel pump, carb, clutch, tranny, brakes, etc. The old messages from the NPCA 'Engine & Mechanical' category are here.

The one with the copper line (right next to the sending unit) goes to the fuel pump. Im guessing the one next to the filler tube is for a vent hose? :D :think:

Thanks. That makes sense. Maybe the previous owner cut that connection for some reason.

The threaded outlet goes to your fuel pump. The other is a breather hose that connects to the filler neck.

thanks for the awesome diagram! I installed the rebuilt tank this weekend, and will attempt to drive it around the block this weekend for the first time since I've owned it.
