Vst hose plumbing???
On my Promax the hose on TOP of the vst tank gos to this brass nipple on the intake. I have it connected to the BOTTOM fitting with the hole. When I squeeze the primer bulb there is a bit of gas that dribbles out of the hole in the brass fitting. Is this the correct location for the top of the vst tank?.
The other hose is connected to the fuel pressure regulater..
Vst system has been completly cleaned.

You have the hoses correct, float and needle and seat should prevent fuel from coming out the fitting on top the VST. Float might be a tad high or needle leaking some.

Needle had a tad bit of crusty on it. All cleaned and works great now... but still think a gas warp under the cowl is a bad idea. Wouldn't know it till without the cover off or catches fire.
