Looked on the site for help and kinda found a post on the oil injection. Now on the carb itself there is two black fittings. Im guessing from other posts they are vent lines.. Where would the oil line hook up too. on the case itself left side there is a nipple looking thing that a hose hooks up too but no hose is there and when fire it up oil comes out of it im guessing this is where I Need to hook a hose to it and then to the oil injection on the carb. Which side is the oil injection at on the carb. Thanks for your time.

it should be on the left side(looking at the trike from the front), towards the front of the carb its a brass nipple near the intake manifold boot. yep the smaller diameter tube goes to the carb, the large one comes from the oil tank. DO NOT RUN THE TRIKE WITH NO OIL BEING INJECTED, YOULL TOAST THE RINGS/BEARINGS! Either add oil to the gas or hook the injector up! your oil injector/pump may be a progressive style. meaning the throttle cable splits into 2 cables and the other cable goes to the pump increasing oil flow to the carb at higher throttle positions.
