    there should be 2 pipes coming from your tank 1 will be the petrol pipe and the other one will be a vacuum pipe if your carb hasnt got a place for ur vacuum pipe you can can suck it fold it overthen cable tie it so it keeps ur petrol flowing or do it the other way and drill ur petrol tap so it feeds constantly (the vacuum pipe opens a valve in ur petrol tap so petrol will come out when air is drawn through it)

    you can buy gravity fed petrol taps aswell, that would be your best option coz otherwise it will be a bit bodgey. have a look on scooter-attack they got the taps and a little thing that lets you stop the flow so you dont flood your engine.

    so how would i install these to me it looks like its just a case of cutting the petrol tube at some point and just stick this in
    what happens with the vacuum pipe after this is installed?
    thanks for the help
