800 Carbs

[Ragaboo]

Gotta quick question... In the picture is the rack of carbs from an 800.
The carb on the far left has a gas line coming from it.. my hand is touching the line..
What is this and where do I connect it to??

Thanks,

Something someone added. Almost looks like it could be for a primer setup.

So do you think l should kink the line and tyrap it or remove the connector and plug it with JB weld?

If it ever leaks, it will cause a lean condition in that cylinder. Plug it permanently.

Yes, agree on both points. Also there is a good section on carb cleaning, nice to do it while you got it on the bench. Not sure if you looked at the orings on the needle seats ever, but good to check that out.
