what is the proper fuel line routing on a duel fuel wc? I found the correct carb but need to know what fitting is missing on the front of the bowl to connect the lines too. thanks, Jesse

Jesse, I believe there was just a tee on the front of the Zenith carb. The fuel line went back to the block and to the tank and the gas line went up to the starter tank. I'll look through some pictures to see if I can find something.

I think I found a picture but the fuel line blends in with the block so well you can't see it. I think the fitting points towards the block and them takes a ninety back towards the tank. does the starter tank get a sediment bowl or just a line with a valve?
Also, who makes the starter tanks for a wc? Thanks

Some of the early WC's had the starter tank on the right rear of the hood because that's where it was for the Waukesha engines and they evidently had hoods left over. The fuel lines met at the sediment bowl. I have never seen a sediment bowl on a starter tank but what is left of mine from the 35 has a shut off valve on it. Hope this helps some, I know it doesn't answer all your questions.
