I'm noticing after riding my scooter in the Florida heat gas drips out of my air filter housing.When I remove the gas cap there's a noticeable release of built up pressure.I'm assuming this is why I'm getting fuel dripping from the lower nipple on the air filter box.Is there a problem with the emissions system not venting properly? I do not see any vent in the gas cap. As I mentioned in an earlier post the fuel tap and needle valve are new.Any thoughts?
