Unhappy saito .91 4 stroke help!

this mite be a dumb question but there is a line that comes out of the back of the crankcase and one on the pipe. wich one goes where? does the crankcase line go to the gastank? or the line off the pipe go to the tank for pressure? this is my first 4 stroke and i cant seem to figure it out. any help would be much appreciated.

I don't have any experience w/ 4 strokes, but if it's like a regulated 2 stroke, then the line from the crankcase pressurizes the tank, although a check valve is needed in the line. The fitting on the pipe would be capped off.

On a Saito 4-Stroke the pressure fitting in the crankcase is a vent to atmospere, and is not connected to any thing. People will add a peice of fuel line to vent away from the firewall. The fuel line on the nipple on the muffler goes to the tank for pressure.
