Anyone use the 3/8 vent line for return?
I want to use the 3/8 vent line on the tank sender as the return, I want to convert it to AN6 using a tube adapter.. anyone done this? any advice?

Good idea, bad idea?

Most vent lines have restrictions and/or baffles in them that make them a bad choice for a return line.
