Thanks!

the rollover vent is supposed to stop fuel in a case of a accident. it is basically a check valve and when pressure is applied it blocks the hole. i took it out and just used a stainless steel 90 degree thread to tubing fitting and bent a piece of 1/2" s.s. tubing and used that for my return to the original location with a small piece of rubber in between the two. I figured if something was going to happen it really doesn't do much if i have a rollover that will stop the fuel but right next to it is the main fill line that has nothing stopping it. I used a new cap i bought with the tank from boyd but i cant remember if its vented or not. I'll double check and let you know.
