Hi All,

 

I had a replacement fuel filler pipe fitted over the weekend as mine tended to jettison my fuel while cornering/braking. My Q is this, should there be pressure/vacuum in the tank?? I'm not sure which it is, pressure I think - I get a hiss when I take the cap off. The car seems to be running fine (20 mile trip with no probs), the spring loaded trap was actually missing from my old pipe, I didn't used to get any kind of hiss.

 

Which is correct - hiss or no hiss??

 

Cheers!

I get hiss when its nearly empty and I fill up - think there is a small vacuum.
