Default carb conversion question

I have a aerovate engine with a p o s chinese carb. It's got the pulse (?) line from the engine to the carb. Now I have a walbro carb, wt-324 with no nipple for the line. Will the carb work like it is and I can just block that line off? Also the walbro has 2 brass tubes, 1 for the supply line, it goes to the seat assembly and the other one just goes internally. I guess it was for the primer bulb. If I block this line off will it work?


Thanks in advance........

The primer bulb line will have to be plugged or it will suck air

The new carb will have to get a crankcase pulse signal one way or the other. It will have to be set up like the chinese carb was

Thanks for the reply..I'm still tryin to figure out the pulse issue..The walbro came off a weedeater and it didnt have the pulse line. If nothing else I can swap the cover from one carb with the pulse fitting to the other......

There you go.

But a weed whacker carb is unlikely to be as big as the original carb
