    Tri-z fuel tank

    is there supposed to be a nipple on the bottom of the tank? like directly on the bottom not on the side? on my tank looks like someone patched the tank with some platic filler or something. total i have 3 nipples, is there supposed to be 4 or is mine right?

    Yeah, there should be 4. One at the top back of the tank, (breather), one by the fill cap (either a return, or something to do with vaccum), one on the side of the tank, (your top left fitting on the pump gets hooked to this one, it's your regular fuel supply), and the one it sounds like you are missing is towards the bottom, it gets hooked up to the bottom left fitting on your pump(this is your reserve supply).
