It's about time i sorted out this. Does anyone know of a small oneway/check valve i can get to go in the end of my fuel breather pipe ? It currently hangs down under the car,not a problem but fuel can pour out when full or going round roundabouts trailing under my hot engine. A friend suggested a tyre valve stuffed in there but i fancy summit more proper,I've grown out of cheap bodge and make do.
If you have easy access to the fuel tank, and can drill then.

I personally didn't have access, so I bought one of these. It does the same thing but its more of an inline solution. http://www.carbuildersolutions.com/uk/in-line-fuel-tank-breather-valve-7mm-hose-tails
The outlet from the breather on the filler tank neck is sealed using a fuel pipe that runs all the way down and along my buggy shell towards the engine. I put that valve as near the tank as I could where it was able to remain as vertical as possible. It allows the tank to breath and prevents fuel coming out in a roll over too.
Just seal it off and drill a 1mm hole in the filler cap....simples.... ;-)up
Cheers chaps,due to the wonderful design of a sidewinder no access. I will go for end of pipe or cap it off. Hole in filler already,cool.
