Super MD Carburetor vent?

Dan MD · Jul 5, 2011

Today, I found a vent? line coming out of the operator's end of the carb that terminates down by the draft tube. I found it was plugged up 2" solid from the bottom. I cleaned it out and was wondering what is the function of this vent and what symptoms would have been caused with it being plugged. My tractor has always seemed to take a little while to start on gas and does not switch back to gas from diesel without dying.

Thanks in advance,
Dan

I believe thats an overflow for fuel, like when needle doesn't shut fuel off.

Yep, fuel over-flow drain tube.
