Good Evenin' All,

Thanks for the input - I will be seeing if I can re-engineer the vents.
However, the 1st thing I'll be trying is the Racor units. I'll post how
things go - but don't hold your breath as I'll only need fuel in March '08!

Thanks for the input,

Dave

PS. Sorry about to duplicate post - shouldn't read my ToDo list without
thinking!

Good Evening's All - Much appreciate (incremental) remedies.

Comfit is a Carver 520 with 2*400 gal. tanks. There are two vents on the
sides (2 per each) that will vent diesel after filling 10 gal. into 200
gal void.

I just spent 1.5 hours putting 200 gal. into each of two 400 gal. tanks.
We had to put a cloth over the two vents to stop diesel going into the
water.

Do you have any suggestions on how I could fix this?

Dave

Dave,
they sell a suction cup container, that will attach under the vents to
catch the overflow. I owned one boat that was a bitch with overflow. I
never could understand why that sucker wanted to overflow, even if you
were slowly pumping the gas.
