[QUOTE="donaldb, post: 136650, member: 1196"] A friend came over last Friday and spent the night (wife was out of town) he just bought a used 05. I took Rad's advise and bought some break cleaner spray to use cleaning/clearing the tank vent tube and suggested he use it on his--just to make sure-- and his was clogged :blink: We looked a bit closer and found the orange rubber tit was off center, apparently it had been hit or something and was clogging the vent hose. Good thing we checked and found it, temp was about 100 here last Saturday, not good for a clogged tank vent, would suspect that could cause the tank to expand out of shape had the clog been complete, got it back in place and his line sprayed clear :yahoo: [/QUOTE]
