A blocked vent tube doesn't vent?


wrongway

but venting insinuates that air is getting into the fuel system. there is no air in the fuel system.

The fuel tank is vented. If it wasn't then as the fuel was pulled the tank would collapse. Same as filling your lawnmower out of a can. If you do not open the little vent hole then the air is pulled up through the spot causing the interupted sloppy slow flow.

nah.....he's one that can never admit to being wrong. i may have overkilled in the other thread....i mean with facts, and diagrams to back my "uninformed opinion" and all.........you know.....'cause 27+ years doing this doesn't count for anything.  :devil

 there is a reason other shops call me for advice. there is also a reason that the guy that taught me 2/3 of what i know about cars calls me for advice too.  :aok

 and yea...i am being a little cocky about it.  :neener:

CAP you almost had me for a second.  I couldn't believe you were saying that.

but.....something blocking the vent tube can't possibly cause a problem.........nothing enters the fuel system through it, so how could it?
