The weeping vent lines at the tank is becoming the biggest problem yet. Return line is run to the short vent instead of the sender unit for unknown reason by previous owner, which functionally makes no difference as dumping fuel direct is dumping fuel direct, but seems to have caused some...
I think I read about this on your original post or maybe a reply on a different thread. More than a few guys decided to just not top off and ignore the underlying issue. Which is fine honestly! If they solved it good enough! But I’m buying that cap now for sure. Thanks.
Exactly. Which brings this all back around to maybe a vented cap working in the mean time while I get my resources together to replace the sending unit and run the lines correctly. But it’s still surprising this could cause seepage from both the vent lines, the worst one still being a vent line...
You misunderstand me. That piece is still present but has been grafted into the rerun line. The fastener portion also still exists but is grafted into the vent going to the tank. It’s all present, just wrong.
Now as to why they ran the return there instead of the sender and did this I have no...
You seem to be the expert on all things gas tank. I know you recommend a specific o ring setup instead of what they sending units come with and a specific sending unit brand, right?
Now this is interesting. So the return line is going to the wrong spot. I think they smashed the nipple on the sending unit cap to close it off though. I will get a photo. I worried this might be the case.
If anyone can me in the service manual where this is solved that'd be fantastic. Because I HAVE A SERVICE MANUAL and there are multiple threads on this forum and the A body forum and the other MOPAR forums about this identical problem, none of which have been thoroughly solved, all of which have...
Yikes. $$$$. I'm willing to try a $10 newer one first. Thanks for letting me know that will fit though, now I can keep an eye out for one.
This this will fit?

I’m getting the impression a lot was done to deal with vapor lock? A return line, running off both the pump and a 3 nipple filter. That’s not very common is it?
If this were also kicking gas all the way into the vent line that runs through the trunk where would I be seeing the drip? I looked...
Why would the tank be pressurizing while parked in a cool environment?
I'm assuming there's no clean and easy method of checking for line blockage?
The return goes to the front and is hooked up in pic.
