Hi James:
No pictures are needed. All I have done was to drill and tap the hole
on the under side of the fuel cap and put in an aluminum screw with a #60 hole
drilled in the center. Vent air passes just fine, but in the case of water
getting in or fuel getting out the volume will be quite small!

Hey Maynard:
How about some pics of your vented caps for the group?
