I looked at mine and it seems the generator tank has some sort of canister vent thingy on top where as the fueling tank just has a coiled up hose with nothing on the end. I am able to see where fluid has come out and run down the sides of the tank.
I'm thinking that coiled up hose needs to be run to somewhere where it can vent vapor without dribbling fluid on the top of the tank.
Thoughts?Jim (& Sharon)

Can you tee in to the generator tube so it all goes through canister?

Just talked to ECI Fuel Systems, Shawn.
He said the hose on top is normal and is not supposed to be hooked to anything. The extra hose is put on to deter bugs that like gasoline smell (???) from building nest and if they do, it can be more easily fixed by cutting off the end where nest usually is. (maybe cause of plugged up vent for some)
He said no problem with running hose more away from tank but would not recommend taping into the canister line on the other tank since it is not designed for that.Jim (& Sharon)

Good info Jim. I wonder if you can add this so there is one for each tank:

I spent a little time looking around and I don't see anything abnormal. I think the smell is a result of both tanks being full, vented caps and what looks like a different vent hose on the top of the tanks near-ish to the opening. Thanks to all of you which pointed out those things before hand
I'm in relatively warm weather, 80 degrees, which would help with expansion. I'm just going to keep the door open to keep the fumes vented. I wouldn't feel safe with that door closed and I'm going to look for some kind of sensor to get an idea of ppm when it is closed to see if my fears are warranted.2019 Momentum 395

Aridon,
I found the same smell of gas on my 2019 394m. The smell is present when I top the tanks off. Most notably the aft one. And of course as expansion occurs in warmer temps, the problem worsens.
I try to keep only 80% or so in both. That seems to work.

I had a similar issue my first few times out with our 351M...Turns out, stupid me just did not have the caps on correctly. Mine are difficult to get on right and then screw all the way down. The cheap plastic doesn't like to line up correctly with the fill tubes.

I never keep the gen or nozzle tank more than 95% full. Seems to help a lot. Plus drain the hose with the pump off.
