Hey guys,
Just need a quick confirmation. On my carb float chamber there are 2 port, one with the fuel supply from the pump and there other with nothing on. From my research that is the overflow pipe, seems right to me
Sooooo... would that be clever to connect a pipe that leads to the floor away from the exhaust manifold? As I dont really fancy a fire in there should whatever be blocked in the float chamber :'(

Yes it would !
There should be a metal tube that runs down past the clutch housing, mine attaches to that with a short length of rubber fuel hose. Never looked to see where it comes out though

Ill try and get a pic later of what mine looks like so you can see where its meant to go The piping looks just like normal brake/fuel pipe.

Yeah, aint it 'P-clipped' to the transfer case bolts? It's a long time since I had a look at one!

Please do! I think my one is missing to, and theres a strange pipe that isnt connected to anything that goes down by the clutch!
Just had a look at my car, and theres a pipe that runs from where my carbs are down to the front of the clutch housing. The pipe isnt connected to anything on the carb. If i take a picture of it will someone tell me where to connect it?
