I have seen pics of engines (55) and noticed that the oil canaster is in front of the Carborator,mine is behind the carb..Does it matter?

Most are in front but i have seen some in back. Either way is O.K. Make shure the oil hoses are in good shape & not too close to the exhaust. Many engines have been ruined by hoses breaking.

Ditto Wrenchbender. I used a brass nipple to route my return line completely away from the exhaust pipe.
