Default Re: Gas Tank Filler Necks: Anatomy/Physiology?

Sam, that's what I thought. Usually..... the cause for that situation is becuause the cap ring is for an EEC tank which used a different (non-vented) cap. The depth of the cap ring lip is different to prevent the inadvertent use of the wrong cap - and thereby potentially sucking in the tank!

My advice (albeit unsolicited!) is to use a Quanta tank! A little pricey, but.....
