Re: Fuel System Vent?

Just as comparison, here is what a vented 47 cap looks like--although different part number than yours. It has the locking flanges on the inside of tube while later appears to have them on the outside. Yours should be the same cap as used thru 56. Maybe someone could post a pict of theirs for comparison to see where it vents.
The half full bowl, if not caused by a vacuum, could also be caused by a partially clogged element. I had that problem and the gas couldn't pass into carb fast enough. You could blow thru the element but gas couldn't flow well. You'd think the bowl would stay full in that case, but it didn't and bowl eventually dropped in level to about half.
