Welcome;
You got me. Perhaps some pictures would help.Youll need to post the pics at a photo site.I don't understand 2 tubes.Most tanks have a ingle outlet that goes goes directly to the carb.Might go through some sort of filter then to the carb.

Re: Gull outboard

the tank has 2 tubes black and clear, on the black within the tank there is a filter attached the clear one has nothing attached.

Re: Gull outboard

I would be using the one with the filter.Those look like they are on a device of some sort,doesn't look like a tank.What happens to the unused tube.
Is the non filtered tube for some sort of recirculation system??

Re: Gull outboard

The pic. above is the carb. as stated there are two tubes comming from the tank and are connected to the inlets labelled inlet 1 and 2. What I think I will do is connect the tubes and try to start the motor. I think that the black tube with the filter should be the input. I sure the motor will start either way but I would like to connect the filter to the proper inlet so as not to suck any crud into the carb.
