very easy.. Things you'll need1. 3 ft of vacuum hose2. 2 hose clamps3. cheap fuel filter (I use the real cheap metal enclosed kind)4. 1/2 drill bit and drill5. Silicon (I use gasketmaker because its resistant to oil and grease... somewhat!) Step 1. Drill a hole through the top of your aircleaner, somewere near the middle where the carb sits. Step 2. Slip the clamp over the vacuum hose and slip the vacuum hose over your secondard jet on the card (this is what makes your carb flood out when your on a steep incline) Once you've got it clamped good and tight on the jet then you take the other end and poke it through the aircleaner. Step 3. Lock the top of the aircleaner into place and route the vacuum hose down to the frame rail, hook the fuel filter to the other end with a clamp and clamp it tight. I just used zip ties because i'm ghetto fabulous like that!Step 4. Silicon where you poked the vacuum hose out of the aircleaner. Wha-LA! Your ready to climb!So whats happening here you may ask?As your truck tilts the fuel starts overflowing back into itself (flooding out the carb) and obviously dies. By hooking a vacuum hose to the secondary jet instead of the fuel flooding into your carb it'll travel through the vacuum hose down into the fuel filter where it'll eventually evaporate. I've ran my truck on very steep inclines and had great success with this method! I have also never seen it dump enough fuel to fill the filter as well so dont worry about it. Shamb.
How does this method compare to running an EFI setup in your opinion. I have heard that many people run carbs in their FTOYS without a propane setup with good success
