Yeah, I just tested the new cap that I got and I can suck air through it from the inside, but it will not vent out the other way...so hot days will cause a pressure build up in the tank. I expect that this could be bad for the fuel pump diaphragm and possibly forcing fuel beyond the carb float needle, and creating leaks/smells? Anyway, are you drilling a hole in the valve inside the cap, or actually in the cap itself?
Another full system question:
I am going to make my own 5/16 hard lines going from the flex line at the tank to the fuel pump- I usually have a flexible line at the pump end as well for engine movement, but the truck didn't have one when I got it- the hard line went straight to the pump. Is this the way the truck fuel line is supposed to be plumbed?
Thanks for the tips guys.
