    I think you are referring to the vacuum port and the connection to the petcock on the original tank. If your new tank does not have a vacuum controlled petcock then you simply cap off the vacuum port. If you can't find a cap that fits, (look at the other carb vacuum ports) you can get by by simply plugging the vacuum hose with something like a golf tee or anything that will make it air tight. That should work until you can find a cap.
