Hi,
I've been experiencing a problem where on a long run, the car looses power and cuts out. When I open the fuel filler cap there is a whoosh of either suction or pressure (not sure which as it's always somewhere scary) and I can then start up and drive normally. Obviously this build up is preventing the fuel pump drawing fuel from the tank. Is there a vacuum being created and would the breather be to blame? My breather is on top of the tank next to the fuel pick up pipe and has a short length of rubber pipe on it with a plastic door lock button in it fixed in with a hose clip. Not a factory standard...
Any help/ideas gratefully recieved.
Thanks
Bob.

Thanks gents. I'll explore the pipe out with a valve option. All I need now is time.....
