Subject:another fuel expansion tank question
From:Michael Rule
Date:Mon, 6 Dec 2004 13:06:48 -0800

Hi All,

Can someone please explain the purpose of the fuel expansion tanks?
Well, besides apparently sending debris back into the main gas tank
when those top seals fail...

Guessing there's some vapor trapping/recycling involved, and wondering
if some clogging/malfuntion of these that causes that splashy gas burp
if I fill the tank too quickly...

And maybe also why I've never seen another vehicle with them?

Not that I'm particularly well-travelled mind you, but if I can hammer
out these last few issues in my Westy, I might be...

Thanks,
Mike
84's
