Diagram showing where the lines from the fuel tank go at the carburetor and the primmer bulb.
The fuel lines leave the gas tank on the drivers side near the rear wheel rail. From there they go forward on the drivers side then angle up behind the front wheel well. From there they either go across to the fuel rail on a fuel injected model, or they go down to the fuel pump on a carbureted model. From the fuel pump they go to the carburetor.
It goes on the fuel inlet of the carb. Without knowing the exact carburetor you are referring to that is really the only answer I can give.
Fuel lines, carrying fuel.
There is no carburetor on a 1998 tercel, it's fuel injection. Just go get a can of sea foam mootor tune up in a can and pour into your fuel tank. and that should clean your fuel injector nozels.
As far as Just putting an intake and carburetor on it NO. The first place It won't run worth a D... Fuel injection is the way to go with todays fuel. Go to my Discussion board, I would like to talk with you about this matter. NEUTZ
The fuel filter is probably clogged and not providing sufficient fuel to the carburetor under normal operation, which is probably why you have to "go the throttle". If the fuel filter is not at fault, you probably have to do some adjustments to the carburetor. While you're at it, check the air filter, too.
Change intake manifolds to a manifold that accepts a carburetor. That's really all you need to do. I'd recommend against it though, because EFI is a LOT more efficient than a carburetor is. HP will likely go down while fuel consumption and emissions will likely go up. Now it will work just fine because there is very little difference internally between an engine that uses a carburetor and an engine that is fuel injected.
There are two basic ways to do this. The first one, turn the engine over with the starter motor untill the air lock goes away. Second, if this does not work you may have to bleed the fuel system, usually at the carburetor. With sufficient fuel in the gas tank and the fuel pump in good shape, the block should go away using bleeding and turning over the engine. In rare cases of mechanical obstruction the carburetor has to be removed and compressed air forced through the fuel lines.
Pure ethanol will not gum up a carburetor. However in high concentrations it will disolve or corrode anything in the fuel system that is not chemically compatible, especially at higher temperatures. Disolved contaminates will go right through a fuel filter and can gum up a carburetor as the ethanol vaporizes and they come out of solution.
If in fact you have a carburetor, the fuel line comes from the fuel pump. Give us info like the year, make, model and engine for more info.
carburetor problems, clogged fuel filter, or the fuel pump starting to go south.
