* Reduced fuel flow: A clogged vent can restrict the flow of fuel from the tank to the engine, which can cause the engine to run lean and lose power.
* Engine stalling: A completely clogged vent can cause the engine to stall. This is because the engine needs to be able to draw air into the fuel tank in order to create a vacuum that draws fuel from the tank. If the vent is clogged, the engine will not be able to draw air into the tank and will eventually stall.
* Fuel tank damage: A clogged vent can also cause the fuel tank to become damaged. This is because the pressure inside the tank can build up and cause the tank to rupture.
It is important to keep the fuel tank vent clean and free of obstructions. This can be done by regularly inspecting the vent and cleaning it with a brush or compressed air. If the vent is clogged, it is important to have it replaced as soon as possible.
