I would second what Phat said about the vent line. Would really suck to cut the deck, do all that work, and have the same thing happen again. Try to see if you can get it to "run down hill" to the tank with as few dips as possible. I know that will be hard without direct access to the tank. They say you should have a loop in it towards the vent, but I disagree, the loop traps fuel when you top her off and helps cause all the gurgling when you fill up and then sprays you in the face. I remember you saying a few years ago about fueling up and telling everyone "Shut the F^&H up!!!", Def know what you mean.

If it still doesn't work it's probably the plastic foil seal off a jug of 2 stroke oil getting sucked into the pick up.

Wellcraft didn't put a hatch in because they were being cheapasses.
