Looks like (1) 12 an, the other hose looks smaller. The tank exit still looks like it is small and stepped up at breather, a restriction. Going back a few post and "reading" there is positive crankcase pressure causing the problem. I'm pointing out the fix not critical of a photo.[/QUOTE]
Relax take it easy I didn’t criticize you all I said was Look at the picture above your post no ego here.

I was thowing out ideas for the cranckcase pressure. I would not do a vacuum pump but it is an option. I did do the Moroso pump on the Hemi drag car (no blower) and it did help at 9 second a pass. All your examples make sense for a marine application. The bigger breathers should do what you want as it does for my BBCs. The Dry Sump would work but is a lot of time and money for the little extra it does.

You gotta report back this season if they randomly pop up on their own like the others! :mad:

Does it take a lot of effort to pull up those new ones? I have the same ones and they are brutal to pull out.

Dave,

How long does it take for THAT to start happening? The ones I installed a couple years ago are almost TOO hard to push the button. Mine are the "stud" style, where you don't see the screws from the outside, but I can't think of a reason that would make a difference.

Thanks. Brad.

It can be 2 minutes or two hours there is no rhyme or reason to it. Maybe they are just worn the hell out I don't know but mine are the same as his old ones posted above. Previous owner replaced two of mine I "think" with "new" ones of the same type, they may have been used I'm not sure and I have no proof either way but they still do it.

Are these what you have?

It was only the front ones that poped out on me .. I bought a new one and while less, it still poped open.
I also like to use 5/8" rope and the 6" pop ups , there wasn`t much room. The new one are 8". Much more room.

Neva, couple whacks and they came out. I had to use a slide hammer on one front cleat.. there was no room to whack em from underneath. If someone used 4200 I could see it beiing an issue.

Edit: you`re talking about the new cleats? Nice and smooth.
