Can someone tell me where this fitting goes? It’s connected to the intake manifold right above the bottom 2 carbs of the engine.
2000 Johnson 225 v6.

drain fitting. what does the hose routing diagram in your manual say?
It doesn’t show in the diagram. It’s behind where the fuel rail would sit, I moved the fuel rail over a little and just saw that fitting there. Then I disconnected it to see. Here’s a better pic of it. Does yours have anything in that spot? Again, this is above the lowest carburetor on the port side and a little to the left. Thanks.

unfortunately im not at my shop but its either a drain fitting that goes into the airbox, or a recirc hose that goes to one cylinder port side but it doesnt look like a check valve one. Racer could tell you.

I don’t, all the recirculating hoses are connected.

I don’t see any other brass fittings, and all the the recirculating hoses are where they’re suppose to be.

Ok thanks, I’ll reach out. And yeah, I have the the 2 airbox hoses connected already, it’s just strange.
