On my 1970 144s with twin Strombergs on a B 20B engine, the front carb is pouring out fuel from what the Volvo Service Manual calls the "Drilling for air supply under diaphragm".

It flows out the 90-degree curved pipe through a hose to the Hot Start Valve at the rear of the air cleaner box, and from there pumps fuel through that valve and back into the air box, filling it.

What's going on here?
