Eek! No, this is not OK. Hook up the vacuum hoses correctly. Carburetor operation and repair manuals and links to training movies and carb repair/modification threads are posted here for free download.

Out of curiosity, how does this late model 2280 compare to the earlier Carter BBDs? As far as people's opinions who have used both?

My 2280 is great so far... No hesitations, smooth idle, plenty of power when mashing the pedal. We'll see how the real cold starts are in October/November, but works great now.

Having no bowl vent does make for a few extra cranks during a hot start, after sitting for 10 minutes or so. I guess the fuel boils in the bowl.
