Installing a old used generator in a new camper

Was thinking about installing my old 4000 watt onan generator into my new torque toyhauler. My torque is generator prepped and suppose to be ready. My question is it looks pretty simple other than my old camper only has one fuel line going to it and there are two fuel lines plumbed into my new cabinet. Can I hook just one of these up and will it work correctly leaving the other one plugged.

Thanks

The Torque is plumbed for the new (required after 1/1/2011) EVAP (evaporative emissions) generators with a supply line and a return line. Hook up the small line to the fuel inlet and leave the screw in the large one as an older generator will not have a fuel return. The 4000 will connect to 30 AMP service, if you have a trailer with 50 AMP service you'll need a 5500 generator.
