Hi all, I have a problem when filling that the fuel at the pump does not shut off, and the boat pukes out a ton of fuel when filling. It's a Perko style filler, where the vent is right there at the filler as well. I read somewhere that these had a problem at one point in time. I also read, it would be good to run the vent line separate of the filler, and mount it as high and straight up as possible. I'm not sure what my options are there yet, as my filler point is already very high up.
So 2 questions;
1. Anyone know if Perko has since re-designed/fixed these somehow? Due to it's unique shape, It would be best to keep that style of filler.
2. If I do relocate the vent higher, how much higher does it need to be to really be effective?
Thanks!!
