|
|
I'm fitting a late bay tank and it has 2 breather pipes.
Can I just block these off if I'm using the split screen filler neck and fuel cap?
Thanks. _________________ MonkeyDubs!

I ran a hose from the top of the tank to the filler neck area next to the cap. My intention was to then throw a charcoal filter at the end of the (hose) line. 12 years later I am still thinking about where to get such a filter... _________________ Kevin Albrecht

I plugged one and ran the other up to the top of the filler neck. _________________ Your Vanagon sucks, Stop waving at me.

Crofty. Did you drill a hole and epoxy / weld a pipe into the top of the filler neck to connect it to? _________________ MonkeyDubs!

I drilled a hole and welded the tube to the filler neck then joined the two with a cloth bound fuel line with clamps _________________ Your Vanagon sucks, Stop waving at me.
