I have a GX200 clone OHV. The throttle linkage is junk so Im redoing my linkage. Problem with that is the gas tank sits on top of the linkage so I have to do a pulse fuel pump. My understanding is you have 3 lines off the pump, one to the carb, one to the fuel tank and one to the crank case(ive also read you can use the governor hole). My question is I email the company I bought my motor from and they said I can attach one of the lines to the valve cover thats been drilled for a pulse fitting. Is this true? I dont see how this would work considering the valve cover has a hole in it for a breather tube. Hole=no vaccum lol :mad2:

Valve cover they sell:

The breather has a PCV valve setup inside. The pump doesnt need constant exact pulses to work. It will still work fine. Although I prefer a intake pulse as oil is not a issue.

They also have this:

a spacer for the carb. So just run the line to the tank, line to the carb and line to the crank case?

Sorry Im new to this lol. I get the basics of pulse but not 100%

Yes, You are right. The top nipple on the pump is pules and the inlet and outlet are labeled with a arrow of flow direction. I would personally go with the intake spacer and pulse fitting if running a stock carb.
