If your vent line gets plugged the tank implodes.

Exactly....

Exactly....

Maybe people should block their vents on purpose to try and suck the tank back into shape  :)      j/k

hey flounders!
might this thread be worth pinning up somewhere....
If you drive the nicest car in the neighborhood, work in a cash business, and don't pay taxes, you're either a preacher or a drug dealer...

maybe a child board of Tech? For large scale issues. such as the O2 sensor issue, the flaking rocker issue, battery acid issue, 695 motor finish issue, base gasket issue...etc etc.

Another piece of the puzzle.

If the tank does soften (which appears to be the case) with exposure to gasoline. Add to that a blocked vent hose and...well its like blowing up a balloon.

Every tank softens.? some distort slightly and some drastically...Why the difference? The blocked vent may just be the missing link??

And the protruding dimples are petro elves complaining about the open clutch noise? [bang] I got them on both sides and on top of the tank too.
