I received a few words of advice on my "situation", thanks much they are
appreciated. Let me add.... The fuel sloshing out condition showed up when I
first got the car. I checked and it did have a check valve. I took it out and
there did not really appear that there was any way for it to not function, at
least visually so I re-installed it. Originally the vent went to the top of
the inner fender and then straight down, no loop. I do not remember how much
gas I had in the cell, maybe I just had it to full. Anyway, I really really
didn't like the gas coming out onto the exhaust so the catch can was installed
as a redundant system as well as adding a loop in the vent tank. Since I have
put in this so called fix I honestly cannot remember ever draining any gas out
of the catch can after a event. So maybe it was a big waste of time but it
made me more at ease never having to be wondering if gas might be possibly
splashing out when I am at the wheel. And heaven knows, I need lots less to
worry about when I am behind the wheel! :)
