I'm in the process of converting my CT to CDI setup with a complete motor from a newer CRF70 including carb and everything. Here is my question....... I dont know yet if it will be a problem but I see it as a potential problem. The fuel inlet on the carb is on the top of the carb which is higher than where the fuel line runs out of the opening in the frame coming from the tank. Is that a problem? I dont see how it couldnt be because liquids dont run uphill. How did everybody else route the fuel lines to get it higher than the carb??

As long as there's gas in the tank above the carb inlet height, it will flow.
