Carburetor Question

Post by mick88 »

I just swapped out my Honda Spree motor for a running one with less mileage, and ran into an issue with the carb. When i took the motor off the frame and disconnected the hoses from the carb i dont remember missing one, but for some reason there is a hose reciever on the bottom of the carb with no hoses that i know of to attach to it? I was wondering if anyone could reassure me that there is no hose that goes there, or that i need to find one? Thanks

This could be your drain-nipple. When you unscrew the drain plug, it actually lets the gasoline drain out of this nipple (plug connection, whatever). That is right on the bottom of the carb bowl.
