"Ok motor is running well finally, but have a question about fuel tank vent, I have a 1990 Starcraft 16' superfisherman 160, with a built in 17.5 gal gas tank. the tank vent is on the starboard side bow part of the hull just under the fuel tank filler, how do I know what position the vent should be in, it rotates and has a rectangular port hole in the vent, is it supposed to screw in tight , or should the vent hole be facing up or down?"

"While turning it counter clockwise, lefty-loosey, you should notice gas fumes if it's venting. As a rule of thumb, I bounce my boat a little side to side then open the vent to make sure it's open all the way."
