First Generation Firebird-L Mailing List ......................................................................... I'm by no means an expert but does your fuel system have a return line? It has been quite some time since I drove my '67 but I think it had a non-vented cap and a return line to the tank since it came with a 400. Sometimes it would release pressure when I stopped to get gas but never got so tight that I needed channel locks. "67 and "68 could very well be different also.

First Generation Firebird-L Mailing List ......................................................................... I have a '68 400 with a 4-speed manual, and Rochester Quadrajet. I am running a stock mechanical fuel pump. I installed brand new stainless steel fuel lines. I live in the Dallas area where it gets muy caliente in the summer. My gas tank seems to build up a lot of pressure after I go for a drive. Is that normal? Once it was so high that I had to use channel locks to loosen my gas cap. Sure don't want anything to blow up. Should I use a vented gas cap?
