    It's the elitists attitude here that prevents people who aren't part of the "clique" from asking intelligent questions. All it takes is one member making a non-substantive response, then the "teachers" pile on.

    For those who did respond above with some actual information, I thank you.
    Stephen,
    Maybe you should take the time to understand what is being said here. You will get a lot more from this Forum if you do. There are very few, if any, elitists on this Forum.

        Thanks again for the info. It's a 59. I replaced the tank a few years ago with one with baffles, but it still has the vent hose to the fill tube. What I found out on the CF (horrors), is that my cap may have a pressure spring type set up (similar to a radiator cap) under the card board gasket. I looked at the cap and that apparently is what it is. I didn't go too far as the cap in that area looked delicate.
        I asked the question because I had just purchased a non-vented cap and both caps pretty much looked the same inside and out except for the word "vented". I did some research and most of the "vented" caps appeared to have some kind of hole, mine didn't. Hence the question.
