Well, I have taken my 04 Sportsman 700 (carb) down to the bare bones, and it is now all back together, and running. I looked down at the fuel pump, and Ill be darned, the "fuel inlet" nipple has no hose on it at all, and "fuel out" hose is just dangling there with the filter, and another piece of hose on it. I doubt I missed all this while taking it apart. Is it possible to bypass the fuel pump. If so, I’d like to fix this.

!. Can the fuel pump be bypassed?

2. Does anyone have the diagram, or can you tell me where each of the three hoses are supposed to go.

It is running, and while I have only rode it around the yard since I have owned it (it needed some work), it seems to run pretty good. Maybe a little rich, but not too bad.
