Wez Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 Hey All, When removing the charcoal canister there is a tank breather / vent pipe, with this line vented to atmosphere could petrol in the tank evaporate over time? I am talking about a couple of years not a week or two Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
