fan...mind=blown. i have looked on top of that tank dozens of times and never noticed that before. now i realize why though - i have to cock my head sideways up under the trunk strut to see it.

im kinda blown away right now with this info. this whole time I thought that tube acted as an overflow drain for the closed system. now i realize that all the fluid i have seen literally pouring out of that tube has either come up through the burp valve, under neath the cap, or out of cracks on top of the tank! I'm amazed that much fluid went through that hose and never once overflowed into the trunk compartment. This makes me much more confident in the decision to replace the burp valve since I really dont think there are any cracks (pressure tester will arrive soon so will know for sure at that time) and its definitely not the fill cap.

Thanks again fan! I owe you!
