the one with the filter-thingie goes inside the fuel tank to block any dirt from going inside your carburetor and yes it should go to the bottom if you don't want to run out of gas even if you have some left in the tank ;) . That line should go under the carburetor, on the opposite side from the bubble (carburetor's gas pump).


Like this: http://www.rcuniverse.com/magazine/reviews/1021/still12.jpg (the out line (yellow one) goes back in the tank).

The line going to the bottom of the carb (pickup fuel line) is the feed line, this line needs to go all the way into the gas tank to be able to pick up the fuel. This line is also the one that has a tank fuel filter (clunk) on the end, which you want to make sure is resting on the bottom of the fuel tank. The line that connects to the top of the carb (return fuel line) only needs to go about ½-1 inch into the fuel tank and does not require a fuel filter as it is just a return line and is not responsible for fuel the engine.
