Thanks for asking your question on JustAnswer. My name is XXXXX XXXXX X'XX do my best to answer your question.Are you talking about the valve in the filler neck itself that keeps fuel from spilling out of the filler neck?
no ,,,,its like a bleed off valve,,,,its a white box below the filler neck,,,i ran a smoke test and it was leaking at check valve,,,there two hoses that meet at neck with valve on it,,,i is all one piece,,,
You might be talking about the liquid/vapor separator. If so then it should not be leaking.
ok great,,,just to be shure ,,,smoke should not escape the seperator during a smoke test
Correct. This should be a sealed system.
Does this answer your question?
