    Better to leave the tank vent open to atmosphere. Make sure the vacuum taps on the intakes are tightly capped or plugged, though.

    On V11 Sport, the inline one-way valve has been known to disorient, lock off the tank vent and cause "tank suck" (vacuum in the locked off tank that produces a swoooooosh when the cap is opened.)

    Like Docc said.  Be sure you know what you are plugging. One line from the tank is draining rainwater and/or gas overflow. Another is to let air back in the tank as the fuel is used. I wouldn't want to accidentally plug either of those.

    Not that I know jack about Jackals . . . :unsure:

    Thanks Scud and Docc! 
     

    I’ll keep a short section of hose there to vent it. My overfill line is connected. It’s a small line running under the middle of the tank. I Learned that it was working great when I filled the tank in the center stand and parked it later, haha. 
     

    Just curious, why wouldn’t the overfill line also vent the tank?

  2. Hi all,

     jumping in to an ancient thread here, but I realized my Jackal has the line and valves coming from the tank without the canisters. Seeing that it is serving no purpose, can I just remove the line and plug the hole?
