[QUOTE="Bounce, post: 135684, member: 257"] Had a stream (not mist) of fuel shoot into my face in SLC back in 2003. I was lucky I wear prescription glasses or I'd have been hurting. I was very careful after that when opening the fuel cap for the rest of the trip. Reported temps were ~110 that day with actual heat on the pavement closer to 120°. When I got back, I made sure my vent hoses were clipped at 45° (with the up-side facing the back of the bike) and also make sure that I service the fuel filler neck at least annually.
