Hi, anybody know on the gas tank when using carbs, do you block off the 5/16" line that has the baffle and use the 3/8" line that goes straight through? Do I get a cap to block it off, or just use a piece of fuel line and a bolt?
Thanks, Don
The smaller tube isn't really baffled, but is necked down to a small opening at the top. A short piece of 5/16" fuel hose, a long bolt with the threads cut off and two hose clamps is a good cap to block it off.
If you remove the 3/8 line there is a tube shaped screen inside the tank fitting. Its a good idea to inspect it and get a replacement if its clogged or damaged.
