CV Carbs with VOES fitting

#1

Post by fl9018 »

I installed a Keihin carburetor on my panhead. I saw it has the fitting for a VOES switch. What do I do with this fitting? Do I cap it off or do I run a piece of tubing on it like a fuel overflow?

VOES vacuum operated electric switch. No need for the line without the switch.
