I'm fitting a new filler cap and fuel filler pipe but I have a question on the OE pipe and tank vent.

a) Where is the standard tank vent

b) What is the small pipe that joins in with the filler pipe (is that just to let air out when filling?)

c) Will it all be OK if I block the small pipe and run just 1 2" pipe as a filler.

I have decided to keep the orig fuel tank instead of running a smaller (35l or so ) tank in the boot. Better weight distribution being low down and between the rear axles.


Cheers

ok... no replies so i'm going to leave the 2nd small pipe (that goes to filler neck on OE setup) and fit a check valve / vent in line and leave it vented.

a) Where is the standard tank vent

STD car vents via the carbon canistor at the front of the car

b) What is the small pipe that joins in with the filler pipe (is that just to let air out when filling?)

yes just when filling

c) Will it all be OK if I block the small pipe and run just 1 2" pipe as a filler.

this may make the car fill slowly


hope this helps
