Angry Damn Oil Injector Lines...anyone Know Everything??

Ok, well I was swapping carbs for like the hundredth time, and I never broke them before, and all of a sudden, SNAP!! Both of them at the same time. Luckily, I have some good ones from the other cars injector, but I was wondering...Does it matter which tube goes to which port on the carb? Which tube goes where? Your options are long tube, short tube, top output, bottom output (on the injector), and front port, rear port (on the carb)...Maybe someone could run out to their car and feel around for me? I have them in and hooked up, but I dont know if it matters which one goes where...Also, is there someway for me to check my oil output to make sure its right? I noticed that my old lines were bone dry, so I dont know if the damn injector is even working...Thanks to anyone that helps .

PS - Yes, I was too stupid and pissed at the time to look where each one came off of...Sorry .

yes, as it would inject as it releases fuel i would think. but i'm not positive. this seems like a peejay question. where is he anyway? i would check but its dark and i have no light. if anything just put some mmo or 2stroke oil in the tank.

I would look in the manual, but its at my other house, an hour and a half away, and I noticed that they are moulded, but they both fit in just aobut any combination...You know, I can put the long one on the top or bottom output, and it will still reach the front or rear input . I already thought of that...Thanks anyway.

Either line can go to either nub, it doesn't make the slightest bit of difference.

Well there ar 2, and one goes to rotor 1 primary and the other to rotor 2 primary. Makes no difference what so ever. But they are precut lengths, one is a little shorter. The shorter obviously goes in the front

But anyways, dont sweat it, means nothing
