Gas vent ?s


Lagerhead

Recommended Posts

The guy who owns the building that our boat is stored in called last week and said gas was coming out the vent hole. Went over to look and unscrewed the gas cap, thought pressure might of built up with the warm weather. That seemed to help,but he called back today and said it was still leaking. The fuel tank is full and there hasnt been any problem all winter untill now. Hope someone has a tip . Thanks in advance

The alcohol that vents from your tank will dissolve many pastics and glues on nearby articles that are valuable. My six gallon tank that I left the vent open on in my boat caused my Cannon Downrigger Plastic case to stick to the carpet on the floor of the boat. The plastic beads on several worm harnesses were stuck to the rug also. To top it off the glue on the carpet let loose the carpet and now I have to reglue it back down.
