    should slide right over a needle on any carb to engine boot. the tube is connected on any of these to allow suction and only operate the fuel when engine is running

    You're thinking of the XJCD. (It's actually three CDs, but who's counting?) In the US, that would be Brad Bowen. Duane Verhey in Canada.

    Or, you could just go HERE and order it.

    ...and the Maxim-X.
