    I'm sure someone here can help, but you need to be a little more specific - what bike are we talking about? Any information is good

      The T's between carbs 1-2 and 3-4 are overboard vents in case the carbs flood. The T between carbs 2-3 is for fuel. The port on the carb ( is it #2?) is for vacuum to the petcock ( the smaller of the 2 on the petcock is vacuum)

        Yep Bill got it right. The 2 outside vent tubes can just be directed back over the carbs and then down. The middle one gets connected to the larger of the 2 tubes coming off of the petcock. Put a fuel filter in there somewhere. The tube coming off of the #2 carb is the vacuum line for the petcock. If you dont hook it up you will not get fuel to flow when your petcock is set on prime or on. Hope this helps.

                Talking about heads and doctors:

                A Harley rider sees a doctor. The Harley rider has a frog sitting on his head.
                The doctor says: ''What's the problem?''.
                ''Well'', says the frog, ''I have this awful swelling on my butt''.
