TRIPLEX line hook up. Thanks..documentation was not clear.

Jack,
One line replaces all the vent lines in one continuous loop.
(There's a stub between the two carbs.) Another line attaches to a
"new" port vented to the venturi of the aft carb. (I say new because
it isn't used in the standard Bing 54 installation. The new carbs
have the port capped off by a screw. Older carbs must have this port
drilled.) The third line goes to the air cleaner housing. I haven't
bothered to tell you which is which, the instructions are pretty
clear about that. They call it TRIPLEX, but it's really just three
tubes wrapped wrapped with what I call "spring tape". I didn't use
it, rather I used fire hose forward of the fire wall and this cool
nylon braid inside the cockpit.

Thanks...I did a quick look at the carb set up today on the KF3 I just got last month. I could not see any stub/port next to the fuel intake because of the fire hose wrapping on the fuel line. I guess I will try to take this off later in the the week and see what model of carb I have..thanks...
