fuel spill from port side full vent - 1987 18' outrage
my 21 would do it when I filled it before storing it in winter , change of temps expansion, contraction of tank would cause it to burp out of vent tube. My 18 has not done it but I leave a little room in tank now when I store.

Thanks for the reply. Figured it might have been the change in temp.. I will also leave room before storage to prevent from happening again.
