[QUOTE="weekend rider, post: 136253, member: 746"] With all the fixes that have been mentioned and if none seem to work than what? Consider this, the tank is designed operate at atmospheric pressure, sea level =14.5 psi. You are at a high elevation say around 4000 feet. I would consider the pressure and spray came from the 100+ heat and all the sloshing which help builds pressure. NOw you are at a now you decide to open the tankmore pressure in the tank than out side air, laws of physics take over, higher pushes lower end result a spray of gas this is what most likely occurred if you find no vents plugged. A natural act of expansion and contraction from liquid to vapor let the problem come to you and do not always think it had to be mechanical or electrical and you need a wrench to repair it. good luck post when you get problem solved weekend rider [/QUOTE]
