This 8AN kit is typically used for standard-fill systems with direct fill or remote fill necks, including an air filter, 6 feet (1.8m) of 1\/2\" ID fuel vent hose, and adapter fittings. It requires an 8AN male vent fitting on the cell, and works with the standard vent fitting included with the Radium FCST.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat You'll Feel\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFills that flow smoothly instead of burping against trapped air\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZero vacuum-starve as the pumps draw the cell down during long sessions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirt kept out of the cell by the filtered vent inlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA complete vent installation from one kit, hose and fittings included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo-way venting: air out during filling, filtered air in during consumption\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor standard-fill systems with direct fill or remote fill necks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes air filter, 6ft (1.8m) of 1\/2\" ID fuel vent hose, and adapter fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRequires an 8AN male vent fitting; compatible with the standard Radium FCST vent fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRadium's vent routing rules prevent the classic failures and are worth following exactly: from the fuel cell, the hose must first run upward so any captured fuel drains back into the cell; after ascending, the line should briefly route toward the front of the vehicle so slosh cannot escape; vertical loops act as a makeshift expansion chamber letting air out while fuel drops to the loop bottoms; overall vertical height should be at least 12\", and for remote fill applications the loops must sit higher than the fill point. Quick-fill dry break systems flow more air than this kit is sized for and should use the high flow 12AN version instead. Sized and routed properly, the vent disappears into the background, which is exactly what a vent should do.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKit Includes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x Air filter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6ft (1.8m) of 1\/2\" ID fuel vent hose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdapter fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8AN male vent fitting on the cell required (FCST standard vent compatible)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard-fill fuel cell systems with direct or remote fill necks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRadium FCST installations using the standard vent fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Radium Engineering","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43672697110595,"sku":"20-0484-08","price":56.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0064\/7754\/5539\/files\/radium-engineering-rad-20-0484-08-29454191853638.jpg?v=1786717173","url":"https:\/\/www.tunedbyshawn.com\/products\/radium-engineering-fuel-cell-vent-kit-8an-universal-20-0484-08","provider":"Tuned by Shawn","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
