Venting fuel tank
What type of gas filler cap is a 2nd gen (79) supposed to have? I was working on the fuel lines near the tank and when I separated a section of the supply line I got hosed! I don't mean a little gas siphoned off, I mean it was under pressure like there was a pump in the tank! I stuck the line in a 1 gallon gas can figuring it would eventually simmer down - but it filled the can in about a minute. Then it finally dawned on me to have my dad remove the cap. A couple good Ajax cleansing powder scrub downs and I don't smell so bad, but need to find the problem.
It has a metal cap ("clicker" style) with a serrated edge. Is the cap my problem or is there something else going on here?Todd Perkins
