Help with a 036 Pro gas tank vent

[Backtroller]

I picked up two 036s today. The newer one, a Pro Model, leaks a little fuel when tipped. It has the shorter white vent that I'm not familiar with. The inside "cone" feels like an aquarium air stone and the black rubber inside of the tank feels ok with no noticeable rips. Seems tight.

If I order a new one is there a version that may work better? If so, Anyone happen to have the part number handy?

I think I'm missing a clip #30. Is the black valve upside down on mine? That would be #4

 

[Gunn]

i have the same one as you and noticed it leaks slightly as well. Mine doesn't have the pictured clip either.

 

[Backtroller]

I was searching and I think that my black rubber vent is the old style and installed through the outside and #4 is the new style that is installed through the tank side. Am I correct?

 

[huskihl]

Not sure about the black valve. Mine are orange and installed pointed up. Also, I have 3 or 4 with that style vent, and have never seen that clip that yours (and all of mine) is missing

 

[Backtroller]

That's good to know. I'll try to brave the dealership and see if they have an orange one in stock. Not holding my breath.

 

[huskihl]

Not sure if color is of any siqnificance. Try popping yours out and see if there's a pointed end on it. Mine stick up through the tank maybe 3/8 or 1/2"

 

[Backtroller]

Mines kind of triangular. Like a spear head. Just like #1 here. Sounds like it's the older style from this description I think I found my answer

 

[huskihl]

#4 is missing on yours

#4 is missing on yours

He's got #1.

It's either/or, #4 or #1

You don't have the vent pictured in the first one Pat.

I've never seen that clip either.

I may have #4 here for you. Gotta check.

 

[drf256]

I have this one Pat. Not sure if it's right or not. I think they are usually red?

This one might replace what you show and the collar for it.

 

[huskihl]

He's got #1.

It's either/or, #4 or #1

I see. I was looking at pictures when I should have been reading the articles

 

[Backtroller]

I've heard that before

 

[trooney]

All the ones I've had are red or orangeish and feed from inside the tank to outside the tank. And the end of the nipple is really sensitive, can't pull too hard on it when installing or you will rip that nipple off, BTDT!

 

[trooney]

That looks like #1 Al

 

[Backtroller]

Went and ordered a #4 today. I'll see what comes in. Thanks everyone

That looks like #1 Al

Hmmm, I think you are right. Also think my own saw may be missing it.

Back from the dead thread.

I have the black tower vent with a silver standard screw in the top of it. Will get a pic. It leaks badly when the saw is tilted on it's left side.

Tried popping it off... no go. If this is a grub screw type inside that won't due for climbing. The saw will be made leak free. Just wondering what I'll find under this vent cap. 036 no decomp, small air filter saw with a metal badge. Never had to work on this type of vent before.

My part type appears to be number six in the ipl listed above for 036/360 saws.

Edited for spelling
