I goofed!

Well! I could not pass this one. Last week, I was in Montreal and my goal was to start the 54. When I had the car, I though the motor was seized because it would not turn over while I was trying to make it turn by the fan with my hands. So I put oil in the cylinders. No luck. After that, I put diesel right to the top of the cylinders. No luck either. I decided to take off the water pump and the fan began to turn... Rust had made the impeler and the block glue together ( not sure of my English here). So, I went under the car with a small screwdriver and the motor would turn very easy. I think the motor was not seized at all at first. After that I took off the rust from the water pump and replaced it. ( I will put another one later). So, the motor was turning when I would put the key in but would not start. So I bought new wiring, plugs, rotor, distributor cap etc. The week before, while working on the motor I took off the end of a spring but forgot to check where the other end would hold to. I would soon realize that this spring would retain the linkage for the gaz pedal. ( Bad thing!). On my 53, the little can of gaz is connected to the gaz pump with a tube attached to a pipe. So, I decided to do the same on the 54, not noticing ( even if I realize, by the picture I took after, I should have seen there was another fitting) the gaz pump was different ( seems like double or what...). Imagine, the car has the front end in the back of the garage. A friend who was with me said that he prefered to go out of the garage while I would try to start. Good thing! So, I put the key on start and that motor started after 3 seconds but it seems it was at 6000 rpm cause the gaz was right on the floor! The 2 carbs roaring full pin ( it seems an eternity but I took the key off after 4 or 5 seconds...) and I could not see for 3 feet in front of me cause the garage was full of smoke...I went in front of the car to take off a cable from the battery just in case...). I went to check after and noticed that the gaz had spitted from the other fitting from the gaz pump ( you can check the picture attached). My question, is it possible that the tube was attached to a vacuum fiiting instead of a gaz fitting? I am going back next week to Montreal and will try again but, first, I will push tha car out of the garage. Something else I should do? OK guys, when you will finish to laugh, you can answer me..:D P.S. I just loved the sound I heard from that motor...
