The gasoline Club Car Carryall 1700 utility vehicle uses a low-pressure three-line fuel-pump layout: tank supply to pump inlet, pump outlet to the carburetor, and an engine pulse/impulse line to the diaphragm pump.

How the Club Car Carryall 1700 fuel lines are routed
Common Carryall 1700 hose-routing mistakes
Swapped inlet/outlet
A diaphragm pump may not draw or deliver fuel if the supply and outlet connections are reversed.
Fuel hose on pulse port
The pulse/impulse port is driven by engine pressure pulses; connecting a fuel line there prevents correct operation.
Leaking pulse hose
A split or loose pulse hose can make a good pump appear faulty.
Collapsed suction hose
Old soft hose can flatten under suction and cause load-related starvation.

Club Car Carryall 1700 fuel hose FAQ
How are the Club Car Carryall 1700 fuel-pump hoses routed?
On gasoline versions of the Club Car Carryall 1700 utility vehicle, route fuel from the tank to the pump inlet, from the pump outlet to the carburetor, and connect the engine pulse/impulse source to the pump pulse port.
Which hose is the pulse line on the Club Car Carryall 1700?
It is the non-fuel hose that runs from the engine/crankcase pulse source to the diaphragm pump. Trace the hose by destination rather than colour.
What happens if the Club Car Carryall 1700 pump hoses are backwards?
Reversing inlet, outlet or pulse connections can stop fuel delivery or make a replacement pump appear faulty.
Can a bad pulse hose cause Club Car Carryall 1700 fuel starvation?
Yes. A split, loose, blocked or collapsing pulse/impulse hose can reduce diaphragm-pump output, especially under load.
Should old fuel hose be replaced on a Club Car Carryall 1700?
Replace hose that is cracked, hardened, swollen, soft, loose on its fitting or incorrectly routed.
Can I identify Club Car Carryall 1700 fuel-pump hoses by colour?
No. Hose colours change with repairs. Identify the tank supply, carburetor outlet and pulse line by where each one connects.
Fuel-line routing, pump type, connectors and pressure requirements can vary by model year, engine and serial range. Before disconnecting or replacing any line, confirm the routing in the official owner, operator, parts or service manual for your exact Club Car Carryall 1700.
