Default vent lines

I just took off all the plastic besides the back and I found these vent lines. They had three line routed up to the back of the gas tank. The first one I followed went to a T lookin thing and splited into 2 diffrent lines and both lines went to the carb. The next line I followed went to a T looking thing and splited one going to the front and one going to the back I dont know what these lines go to what u think it went to. The next line I followed I think it went to the back I forgot maybe rear diff idk.

So thats all the lines I need to route up with the snorkel. I was lookin at some other snorkels and noticed they had their vent lines inside their snorkel how wo u do that?

o alright so could I run the lines on the side of the snorkel. By the way how do I extend them and how do I get it where theres not much lines what I mean is like connect all vent lines to one line and route it up on the side of the snorkel.

go to the auto parts store and get some 1/4 in tube and some splice connectors extend them to front and then put all tubes in to a larger tube (u should have 4) push then in a few inches and then silicone the end of the larger tube and run it up the snorkle

The crank case vent is probably already vented to the airbox. On my foreman it attaches to the bottom of the airbox, anymore then 1" of water in the box and it runs right into the engine. I got a longer line and routed it up over the intake boot from airbox to carb and back down where the stock vent attahced to make an upside down trap to prevent this from happening.

I dont know if the rancher is set up the same way as a foreman, I got this and other ideas from triangle ATV.com
