There should be one fuel inlet per carb...each carb has it's own. The only "overflow" that I know of on the carbs is the nipple protruding from the carb bowls....one on each bowl and should have a very small hose connected to each. This is the Kawie 650 twin...right?

Should have a tee fitting for atmospheric vent tube,another tee that branches off on the fuel. See if this parts diagram helps.

the plastic one on the digram is no 7 looks like. So you are saying there should be a tee in the gas line to branch off to each fitting

Had Arctic Cat on the brain,sorry.. Principle is still the same on most twin carbs. Have to have an atmospheric vent,usually at the top or middle of the carbs separated by a tee into a single tube. Same for the fuel supply.

There is another tee...and yes its for coolant....coolant flows thru both of these carbs. Send a pic and we can provide better feedback....if you need it. I did the P700 carbs about a month ago, but I don't them very often and I am developing the "CRS" syndrom...
