Carburettor fuel line length

Hi Mariano,

It could be for the PCV valve equipped engines that use a spectacle plate below the carburettor to draw the crankcase fumes into the manifold.

The plate is about 1/4" thick so it raises the carburettor thereby increasing the length between the fuel pump and the carburettor.

Firsthand experience- I bent up one wrong length fuel line before I realised this!

Cheers,
