I have an aftermarket tank in my 49 burb (31gal). The filler comes out very low on the left rear fender.when gassing up I have to fill very slowly to avoid gas from spilling out the filler onto the ground. The tank is not vented that I can see. Is there some way I can install a vent without dropping the tank? Altho I can drop it if need be. All advice appreciated.

I would think to do it right you would have to drop the tank to get at everything you need. I have the same problem with my '48. Pain in the butt to gas up.🛠
