I need one of those seal tools...It's easy to bugger the lip. The seal tool helps to get it in straight and to depth
Isn't going to leak gas if it's letting pressure out?The problem with these newer vents is they don’t let pressure out, only in .... I’m gonna fix that on this 562View attachment 134516
I gut the 3 valve pieces and put back the mesh plug. The vent is now like any old pre epa saw tank vent. They weep when filled up, but when running zero leaks. No more pressure spewing out when cap is opened. No need to buy the echo vent either.Isn't going to leak gas if it's letting pressure out?

I’ve never looked on a 562, is that vent pushed into the tank housing?I gut the 3 valve pieces and put back the mesh plug. The vent is now like any old pre epa saw tank vent.

Yes sir, just sprayed pb blaster on it and a good set of needle nose pliers carefully yank it out. I pushed the guts out with a wire through the small hole.I’ve never looked on a 562, is that vent pushed into the tank housing?
Will do. The way the area behind the vent is setup on the 562 it looked like it would be hard to run a line in there and attach it to a echo vent when I was studying it. Husky revised this tank vent a few times before I believe. Early 562 had the line to carb box attached to the intake manifold from vent, later ones they got rid of the vent line and just left the vent there. Probably to flow better and it’s also a simpler setup is my guess why they did that.Be sure to let me know how it works.
I have an echo one here too but I think I’d have to run a line into the carb area then.
What year is it? Mines a 2016 has el48 and vent with no hose. They already have a el48 replacement on the newest ones believe it or not. Lol. At least it’s continual improvement that interchanges with older saws I think.Mine appears to be an early model.
