Default Fuel cell venting leaking gas

Guys bought the nasty performance pro touring fuel cell and installed it.

The issue I am having is that I have it vented with a 10-an hose going to one loop and then I have a filter on the end.

The hose snakes up through gas tank feed pip and sits basically behind the gas cap hidden.

Now the issue is when I fill up I'll actually leak gas which travels up the breather line around the loop and then out the filter end.

Any way to stop this? Maybe some sort of check valve that won't allow fuel through but will allow fumes to vent?

Let me know this is an issue for me and any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks

I would expect it to be the same as using a roll over valve..

Ok got the vent setup and no leak however now when I remove the gas cap a little fuel cones out when u hear a rush of air.


Maybe to much gas in tank? I am using a tp6 fuel check valve from Pegasus racing

They sell a one way check valve for -6 -8 -10 lines. I need one still, my fuel evaporates through my atmospheric breather when it sits for a while. lol

Check valve installed definitely works however I can't use gas pump without a funnel because it's closed all the time and only opens for air pressure it won't allow filling

Sucks
