    would increasing length of pulse hose decrease pressure?.

    I couldn't get a pulse hose locally, but I have some fuel line that I can use.If I cut the fuel line short like the pulse hose it kinks up, but I can triple the length with fuel hose and have no kinks in the line.Would it be ok to do that?, or will the length decrease the pressure to the fuel pump?.

    I'm thinking about doing a carb job myself, I've never done one, but would like to give it a shot.I have the clymers manual, I know it's not the best, but from what I've been reading the job itself isn't that bad. The manual kind of sucks at describing removal,it looks like there are threads...
