ABSTRACT:
A fuel cap includes a float valve assembly for minimizing discharge of liquid fuel splash from the filler neck through the pressure-relief vent passage during normal vehicle operation. The float valve assembly is compatible with a controllable pressure-relief valve in the cap that permits venting of the tank under normal conditions and controls fuel leakage from the cap during a roll-over condition.
