The PO connected both fuel lines together > filter > pump > carbs.

I'm assuming one line was originaly a fuel return line - so it is now drawing crumbs off the bottom of the tank ... not thru the tank strainer.

Is this a safe setup? Should I be concerned about pluggin up a carb jet?

The filter seems clean. I don't have a problem with fuel flow. POR-15ing the tank is on my to-do list.
