What does a fuel tank breather valve do?

• A diesel fuel tank breather is a valve apparatus that is connected to a fuel tank vent, which enables the tank to 'breathe'. It allows for the optimum intake of air as fuel is released from the tank, and expulsion of air as fuel is deposited into the tank (or expands within the tank)

What happens if a fuel tank is not vented?

• Without a vent, an end user will notice a swelling in even the smallest of tanks. Many smaller vent caps are simplistic and just have an internal spring. The spring acts as a relief valve and exhausts the pressure in the tank. Furthermore, the vent allows air to enter the tank, as well – it's a bidirectional valve

How do you check a fuel tank breather?

• Take the canister vent line off the gas tank and blow through it
• You can use compressed air to check it out
• Try putting wire or plastic tubing through the vent to see if there are blockages
• You will need to now drain the tank and let the inside air out

Does a fuel tank need a breather?

• Feel The Need To Vent? You most likely know that fuel tanks need ventilation in order to allow the fuel to continue to pump without causing a vacuum. This can either be through the gas cap itself, or via some sort of breather tube
