That is correct, I haven't jumped into the filler yet, I may modify the one on the tank too. We will see.

It's great to see you posting again!

Incorporating a vent is the key to preventing fuel blowback. If there's room on the sending unit you could install a 1/2" hose barb. Many new fuel filler necks vent back to the filler by incorporating an inner tube for fuel and an outer tube for vapor. If you want an older looking filler cap, maybe a Jeep YJ filler neck will work?


I'm OK with getting tired, but it seems to take so long to recover. It's normal to hurt after mowing every yard in the neighborhood. It's not normal to still be sore three days later!

Thanks for the advice, I spent a long time last night with my brother (a master mechanic and artist of cars and motorcycles) on the subject and yeah, I will be working on that whole thing, it will be fine.
