Atv Carb question

[animalhse]

I’m replacing the carb on my 96 Kawasaki Lakota ATV.
I know the bottom hose is a drain hose, other is the supply from the fuel tank.
What is the colored hose for on the new carb??
I think it’s an overflow hose but I’m not sure

I took mine off 3 times today.....long story. As for yours it looks like a vent or overflow. Did the original carb have that same hose?

I don’t think it had a hose, just the spigot. I didn’t notice any other hoses when I pulled it off. I only had to disconnect the supply hose with needle nose. It’s been quite some time since I last took the carb off. I’m thinking it was just the spigot without any flow hose on the original.

Probably to engine vacuum, to pump the diaphragm....(I'll be right back)……

the top connection in this pic (similar). "Throttle slide"

Thanks,
I don’t see anywhere that a hose was connected to the original carb.

found an old YouTube video and it’s a vent line that just routes up under the fuel tank [emoji1303]
