[QUOTE="fl.graderman, post: 405688, member: 20523"] I just learned about and purchased one of these last week. A buddy noticed my new gas tank didn't have a vent and my tank was swollen like a basketball. He said he was surprised the pressure wasn't flooding my motor. I went home as started searching online for a vented cap that would fit and found out that after (I think) 2011, portable fuel tanks are no longer allowed to vent into the atmosphere. Funny part was that my brand new tank is Attwood and my brand new fuel line is Attwood...one would think the FDV would have either come with the tank or the line... BTW...I have no issues or complaints with the FDV. Motor starts and runs exactly as it did before I installed it. 2015 Tracker Grizzly 1448 MVX 1996 Evinrude 25hp 3 cylinder looper [/QUOTE]
