Guys, thanks in advance...been restoring a 1971 7.5hp gamefisher.
I'm down to hooking up the fuel lines and I'm not sure which one goes where.
I had one running from the onboard gas tank to the top port of the carb but nothing to the bottom port and the gas just poured out. Apparently, I need a hose from one of the carb ports to the alternate fuel port on the motor housing.
Does it matter which port on the carb I use? Can I run a fuel line from eithe tank to either port on the carb?
I wasn't really planning to use an external fuel tank.
I've been searching the web for images with no luck.
thanks!!
Ed.

no you cant. you have to use the one on the side of the carb if its an Eska it should have a plastic piece on the side that points down at a 90 degree angle.or it could be metal
