How to fix vent tube

[mudd]

I took the polaris out the other day for a nice long ride. On the return trip if felt like i was outta fuel and just died on me. Well i thought maybe the mfd was wrong and that i had run it out of gas i limped it to shore, and checked the tank, and it looked like a crushed bear can. I popped the gas cap and tons of air wooshed out and the tank went back into shape. once i got home i pulled the air vent line and i could blow through it, is there some where else it also vents too?

mudd, what was your year and model again? There is a vent somewhere within the system I just don't know what to look up. It's that age thing I guess.

Jeesh, just saw your sig, I'm looking now. LOL

I'm thinking 13??

[mudd]

its a 1999 slx 1050 that looks like the system, the line i pulled went straight from the tank up to the vent that is hidden by the hood

[mudd]

yeah thats it after lookin more closely but mine doesnt have any of that stuff its just a straight line that runs from the nipple on the tank to that little rubber stopper at the very top number #11 on the picture

So there is NO check or relief valve?
If that's the case, my only guess would be a plugged fitting on the fuel sending unit??
Wierd, I hope somebody else has seen this.

now i am not saying there shouldnt be a check valve some where, but when i got this ski the first owner of it wasnt what u would call mechanically savy, or was too stubborn to ask for help lol so i am not sure. not that u say that i guess there should be other wise if u roll the ski on the top water would have a straight shot into the tank

#13 in vent relief out and #15 is vacuum breaker in.

[mudd]

so do i need to pick those up, i dont know if it makes a differance but its now a premix

Most definitely! one lets pressure out and the other lets air in!
