NC24 Fuel tap, where does vacuum go?

Post by Delvey »

right, decided to give my tank a good clean (bits of rust around the the tap, lock etc) with wd 40, however when im going to put it back on, i have a problem.
i know where the fuel line goes onto, but what about vacuum hose?
there is a place to connect it above the fuel hose, or at a 90 degree angle clockwise to it facing down?
haynes says the one above the fuel line, however that is for an nc30

It's what lets the diaphragm go back 'in' to block the fuel off when there is no vaccumn anymore.
