    Here, judging from the pictures, A should be connected to your octopus, (the thing that controls the fuel flow), which you have labeled Vacuum.

    B should be connected to the vacuum advance under the left side cover.

    It almost looks like the tube you have on B is the one that should go from A to the octopus.




    A is the "vent" tube, it should go to the air box,
    B is the gas supply, it should hook to the hoses from your gas tank

        If you look at the left side of the engine the front round cover, under which the timing components live, at the top of it should be a vacuum hose coming out.That vacuum hose comes from the vacuum advance module and needs to connect to the nipple on the no 2 carb which you have labled B.
        Life is what happens while your planning everything else!

        When your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt.
