fuel pipe config
Hi, I just stripped and cleaned the carb on my 1972 DAX 6V ST70.

Unfortunately I did not mark which fuel feed pipe from the tank attaches to which input to the cock on the carb.

I can tell which pipe is tank and which is reserve easy enough but can't tell which one connects to which stub - front or back.

I've looked through my workshop manual - no help.

I don't want to find out the hard way!

...thanks for any advice offered.

I don't recall what way around it is but turn the tap to reserve and blow thought each stub, if air passes then that's the reserve.
