Twinky Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 I have never seen that 3 line pump before, The standard factory one is the 2 line pump. The screw in fitting is the outlet and the clamped pipe is the inlet from the fuel filter. What you have there is not from a 4k. Even 3k had the 2 line pump.

KENut Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 Johnny that new pump you got is normal, have seen a few of those other ones though. That metal pipe would normally just screw in, but its been hacked and rubber pipe added to fit the other pump. Maybe ask one of the act boys for a new pipe. I'd say the carbys wouldn't be happy without a return, even though they have new needles and seats. Would probably flood them. Before when I said check for a restrictor, now that I think of it, its in the return (angled thingo you will have to screw in). When I got my new pump it was supplyed with a return that had a restrictor. You should probably drill it out? I always ran without one, on stocko and twin sideys.

KENut Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 Lol lol sorry I'm shit at explaining stuff. Second pipe is your return, which goes to where that threaded hole in the pump is. There should be a fitting in the box to fit it. This will probably have a restrictor in it. Get restrictor out, get some sort of thread sealant, bung the fitting in and attach that second hose.
