Vacuum Petcock Hose Connections

In case you take your tank off and forget how the hoses go when putting it back on here's how it goes.

If you want to bypass the Vacuum Petcock attach a small piece of pipe across these two spigots/pipes and then make a small cap and fit it to over the small spigot/tube on the right hand side carb inlet.It's just around the corner at the front of the Carb.Letter "C" on the 2nd diagram

Should the Petcock release fuel when the engine is off? Mine is full flow on reserve, and at a trickle when "on". It shuts off fine. I replaced the bladder already. Thanks!!!
