Replied by yakuza on topic Fuel tank breather
When going low on fuel the filler lets air in when I finally get to fill it.
When i unscrew the cap and there is a very distinct sucking sound from the filler.
Car never studders or anything though.
There is a small vent pipe coming up from the tank for letting air out when you fill petrol into it.
it leads up to the cap I think and when your car goes fine without it, you might try to change the cap? or clean it and rinse out any valves if ther is any?
Well except when it actually runs out coming from the swedish forests where every station is closed or broken and when you get to Norway there is only Diesel
