Some carbs have the fuel return to the tank and some don't.
I can't remember if the DMTR did or not. I've got a couple but they are
an hours drive away.
Some use the screw in fuel filter and some don't, even if it does have
one i would always fit an inline filter before the fuel pump.
The link you gave is to a DMTL not a DMTR, which is your new carb ?
Is it a new DMTR kit from Webcon ?
Can you send a couple of pictures of the new carb and it's pipes
including the one that is blanked off (whats it blanked off with).

Hello there - we've probably established by now that I'm an idiot with no

Anyway, managed to rewire my dash and get the clock going today (thanks Jim!)
also discovered the last guy never wired up the dash backlights which may
explain why it was really really dim at night...
Anyway, I was on a roll, so decided to fit my new carb - a 32/34 Dmtr from
webcon. But I have a problem - knowing next to nothing about cars (and not
having an installation guide as promised (thanks webcon), my assumption that
the new carb would have the same fittings as the old was naive /misguided. My
old dft has a fuel pipe that goes into a metallic filter or something and that
screwed into the carb body. Next to that there's another pipe with a brass
fitting. I assumed that was some sort of float overflow or similar because it
seems to come from the petrol tank too.
But the new carb doesn't have any way (that I can see) of plugging both these
pipes in. There's no thread at all for adding the fuel pipe filter attachment
(well there is but its blanked off) but there is the brass tube thing that the
overflow was on before. If I plug the fuel line into this one (I honestly can't
see where else it would go) then I've got no overflow (or whatever it is) pipe
anymore? I did try it this was but the quantum was having none of it - it
almost caught but then just filled the carb with petrol.... Yippee.
Anyway, as ever, HELP!!!!
Photo here kind of explains what I mean I hope!
