Thanks, Jim.  I'll look for that vent hose.

When the roads to the hangers FINALLY give up the frost and are drivable, I
can "bail out" the Square.

Right now, some pilot/airplane owners, probably with 4-wheel drive
vehicles, have torn up the "roads"(?) so badly, they're impossible to drive
on.  Certainly NOT drivable for my Square.

That Gas Tank Vent Tube must run along the LH side of the gas tank edge.
Somewhat along where we ran the (coach-to-car) wiring harness for the
electrical hook up, when I towed the Square behind the motor home.

I still need to find a way to make it easier to remove the Gas Tank Cap.

My initial thought would be:
1.)  stuff a rag (partially) into the Gas Tank Fuel Filler Tube
2.) using Bronse or Copper Wool (NOT steel wool) to smooth the top edge of
the G.T.F.F.T.
3.)  vacuum up any of the debris from the rag, &
4.)  carefully remove the rag, bringing any debris out of the Tube.
