Tank vent - what if I top the tanks up to the filling cap?
Im running new hoses in a new tank setup. I understand there must not be any dips in the vent line....but what happens if I top up my tanks so even my fill hose gets filled? Cause then there will be fuel standing in the vent hose as well. So what happens when running my engine?

And yes...the vent fitting sits higher than the fill cap
