I cut the original hose at the head , went to the hardware store and got a connector (barbed fitting), added the fuel hose (thinking it was 5/16ths ), and routed down the frame tube, beside the oil tank, behind the right cover , and ended up zip tying the end to the casted hole in the bottom of the motor (You'll see the hole once your down there). Worked great for me. 2 cents......BB

I ran mine over to the back bone and ran it down next to the tank vent hose.
