I think more than one RV has collapsed a fuel tank from a clogged vent. Take a few inches of 3/8=94 aluminum tubing, cut one end at 45 degrees or so, then JB Weld on a piece of aluminum window screen material. Once the JB Weld is cured, clean up the edge on a ScotchBrite wheel or similar. Do a =BE=94 cut in the other end for a hose clamp, then slide this over the now somewhat shortened standard =BC=94 vent tubing. Have the =BC=94 tubing extend well past where the clamp goes.
