What is that? :S
There's three ways of doing things:

The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.

Top marks Robbie.. 5.3 gallons genuine Suzuki.. Brand new "old stock".. Comes with filler,breather and fuel gauge.. Has the handles on the side to strap it down with. Just need to work out what to do about the return fuel feed.
I'm quite pleased with it cause it's a bit different.

I'm new to this but thought that maybe a "T" back into the feed fuel pipe would just suck the petrol back towards the carb?

in a way it probably would but if petrol is going back up to the carb it would go into the engine and burn etc , but it might flood the engine im not 100% sure sorry!
