mikekaz1 Posted November 25, 2016 Posted November 25, 2016 Does anyone have a diagram, pictures or just half a clue on how the 1/4" gas vent tubes get routed? Mine are all dry rotted, broken and hanging and id like to replace them.

mikekaz1 Posted November 30, 2016 Author Posted November 30, 2016 thanks for that link, but that and my 1991 specific manual only mentions how the vents work, not how they are connected/ routed.

ScottJeep Posted November 30, 2016 Posted November 30, 2016 IIRC the two vents are connected and then one hose lead back up to the engine compartment. Had my tank out WAY early with the current MJ. Cannot seem to find any pictures from the ordeal. Here is what I found....

ParadiseMJ Posted November 30, 2016 Posted November 30, 2016 Yes they are tee'd, on top of the tank, then the single rubber hose heads toward the firewall...and hooks to a short metal hose, that travels up the firewall behind the engine. The metal hose is about 12-15" long. Then it continues to another rubber line that ties in to the charcoal canister...and sucked into the intake manifold by the other (fatter vac line) coming off the canister.

Hippie66 Posted December 4, 2016 Posted December 4, 2016 If you have the tank dropped, easy to install all the lines from the vents, then reinstall the tank, hooking up the hose to the metal line after the tank is back in. A side note, the grommets for the valves are cheap and good quality from Summit.
