I got a good look at one of these today. Impco regulator with a electric lock off. The fuel hose goes to the top of the carb. There is a "T" in the fuel hose with a small diameter (vacuum line) hose that goes to the base of the carb, like where a vacuum hose would hook up. In the "T" is a valve that you can adjust how much flow the small hose has. This is the idle mixture control, like the pilot circuit on a gas carb. Just under the base of the carb is the 1/2" water hose that goes to the Impco with a thermostat in it. On the very top of the carb is the gasoline inlet. I would think on a duel fuel system you have another electric lock off on the gasoline line somewhere by the carb

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
