    Hello,


    I’m not sure why but the passenger side fuel tank is not leveling the fuel properly, it’s always that there is much more fuel in the passenger side tanks then on the driver side. When I open the tank I can hear the pressure leaving the tank and if I leave it just 3/4 closed then both tanks get the same level of fuel. Is there something I should check if it’s not clogged or something as it seems the issue is with the pressure?

    Thanks in advance

    Change both of the breather filters (one on each side, 10 or 20 bucks each) they are located in behind a little steel box/shield thingy in behind the tank straps.... just follow the lines coming out of the brass fitting on top of the tanks. Also blow those lines out and you should be good to go!
