Briggs Vanguard carb question

12 years ago

I'm a newbe on this site. Wondering if anyone out there knows what the 2nd tube is for on a briggs vanguard 351447-1079 E1. One is for the fuel line. Not sure if I should plug the second one off.When I cleaned the carb I am able to blow air through it.I am cleaning this carb for the second time in a row,first time I found a blockage and thought I had it. It did improve then it got worse.

I'm guessing that the passage makes its way into the bowl- for a bowl vent? An external fitting next to fuel line is what you are referring to? If it works in an area filled with lots of dirt and debris- take some hose and vent it to a cleaner area.

Thanks for the response. Bought the engine used and wasn't sure why the external fitting wasn't connected to anything.
