Thanks for all the comments..
Tennmogger,Bob, thanks...but the " brilliant " part was gleaning it of other people before I pulled the credit card out. I Read more about it now and other smart people figured out that some grease nipples and brake bleeding screws are M7x1... So a lot easier then what I did if I just had read a little more....
In this mog the electric pump feed the fuel tank selector valve and then the mechanical pump.... The second connection on the carburetor goes back to the front reserve tank... All fuel line is steel hard line.
The fuel drain screw on carb has a small hole in it to allow fuel to other sections...see pic.
And indeed these were owned by a friend of Kelly. Kelly was very helpful in getting this all sorted out. Thank you Kelly..
There is more to this ridgecrest,CA story where these truck are from. I will divert in the next post.
2many trucks, Jeff., thank you. I have figured it out on mine . it seems Bob's mog is different. Now that the electric pump is working it turns out to be a nice feature that enhances the start...or at least takes some guess work out if you have fuel in the carb or not.
In this pic you can see the side hole in the drain screw. I drilled on as well.. Above that the bulkhead fitting I used to make the adapter.
