Post 20 hp vanguard GDLT
i have a 20 hp vanguard engine that has been sitting up for a couple of years that is being loaned to us for hunting season! under the air filter on the carb it has 2 nipples one has a fuelline coming from the fuel pump and the other has no hose connected to it. when i turn the engine over gas comes out of the nipple that has no hose connected. i cant find where the hose may go or even if it is supposed to have a hoe or just plugged off.. any help would be appreciated.

The one that has no hose connected is a vent dont plug,the reason its coming out of the vent is because your needle is probably not seating.

Sometimes all it takes is taking it apart spraying it in carb cleaner and re-assembling.

Ive seen floats stick when there wasn't even any visible trash or varnish.
