BertR,

I'm new to this what do you mean by "Vent the tank " ??

Thanks

There's a little vent hole in the gas cap that tends to get plugged up. When it's plugged you'll run into running/starting issues. So to get around that, you can either drill out that little vent hole and thread a brass fitting into it, then run a piece of fuel line from the fitting. Or you can install a Snappy kit, which comes with a three hole grommet. One of those holes is for a dedicated vent line, so you don't have to rely on the vent in the gas cap. Basically that's what they mean when they say to vent the tank.

Here's an example of a DIY vent.
