Re: Fuel Tank Vent

Ideally you want the vent hose to vent higher than the top of the filler neck. Plus run a filter of some sort or a charcoal canister. I've seen some folks run the vent hose for the rear mounted tank up the stake pocket with a filter on the end. One gave off a strong wiff off gas when you walked close to it on a hot day at a car show though. I found that when I was taking photos of the bed wood and pinstriping on the back of the cab.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
