[NSRCA-discussion] 3M tank configuration

[Ed Miller]

I've re-routed my vent line to behind the tank since abandoning the bladder 
style tank, although not as far back as the end of the pipe tunnel. Should I 
still use a check valve and if so, will a YS check valve suffice ?? What 
color inner Nyrod is fuel proof and to what nitro percentage ?? Would love 
to shed a few more grams.
