Since this board has been so helpful, I have another question about the fuel tank on my 89 50hp johnson.

I have the OMC steel gas tank and there's no vent or anything? Shouldn't there be one? There seems to be a lot of pressure in the tank if I remove the filler cap. What am I missing here?

it is a self venting tank, it lets air in, not out. keep the tank out of the sun, when not in use.
