Especially with a mod 30.5, or adding a pipe. Fuel flow gets increased. Once I added 8" pipes to the X-Can on the stock 30.5 I couldn't keep it running till I put a vent kit on. Full throttle and 2 seconds later, silence.rampagemt said:It will run soo much better once tank is vented
+1 on that! thats what i did.. I was in Antelope Acres a few months ago picking up my dad.. wish id had the time to look ya up...Chief409 said:I put in a vent kit from Snappy RC. You can't use the gasket in the kit for the fuel cap, the RedCat has a much smaller diameter filler. However the 3 hole grommet for the lines fits in the tank just fine. All you need to do is plug the vent hole in the gas cap, I used a toothpick, hasn't worked loose yet. Better yet, drill out the vent hole in the plastic filler cap and use a grub screw.
(I meant the engine flooded not the carb sorry) No gas made it to the air filter.RCDAD said:You gotta make sure the end of vent line is not submerged in the fuel.How does it flood the carb? I can see it making a big mess. Is it dripping onto the air filter?
This works for you? Does gas fill the vent tube at all?nik81818 said:Heres how I did mine
Mine did this too. It was because I had the fuel lines mixed up. Something to check anyway. Supply to bottom of carb and return out the top.Mike4130 said:So here's my question, my buddy just installed his tank vent (bought the Snappy 3 hole grommet kit from DDM) and ran the vent line 1/2 " into the gas tank. Wen the engine is running gas starts making its way up the tube eventually out the check valve pouring fuel everywhere and flooding the carb. Anyone had this problem? We've tried mounting the valve facing up & down. This is with the cap sealed also. When we run a vented cap, the fuel never rise up the vent tube. How strange is that?
I double checked that, Thanks.Ebb75 said:Mine did this too. It was because I had the fuel lines mixed up. Something to check anyway. Supply to bottom of carb and return out the top.
