My motor has been running fine until yesterday it would hesitate and die at WOT. I noticed the new primer bulb was almost sucked flat. I opened the tank cap and it was fixed . Today I checked vent line and found a daggum caterpillar in the fitting thats mounted on gunwhale. < ? The screen had a hole in it I replaced the screen. What I want to know is where can I get a better fitting for the vent? The one I have is basically just a fancy nipple with a chrome top. I saw somwhere in a post about one that will prevent water from getting in to vent line. This is what I need,the back of my boat is low to the water, and if a large wave comes over it I'm afraid water may get in tank. I've searched for a hour and a half and can't find the post.<br /> Thanks,<br /> KYHunter :)

I think your looking for this Attwood brand vent: <br /><br />

<br /><br />Go to the Mega Mall and do a search on "Fuel Vent" and it will be in the results. About $10.00
