The tank has a vent hole in the top center.
I personally have a gauge cap that is not vented.
I made sure my tank vent hole is unobstructed.

Your gas [b:6709375425]tank[/b:6709375425] was vented originally but the vent may be
plugged now. Many are. It won't hurt to use a vented cap.

If you can, go with the Gauge cap Greg mentioned.
You'll be glad you did. Nice to be able the check the level without sticking something down in the tank.

I got a vented gas cap with gage from Dennis Carpenter. works very well for me. Should have been an original equipment item.

Just buy a vented cap. It won't hurt a thing to have two vents. You can buy them at any auto parts store.
