I got a couple of those and had to return them. They only work if mounted with a particular orientation and vent hose path. The place I returned them to said they get a lot returned. The way my boat was built, there wasn't enough height between the top of the tanks and the bottom of the decks to fit everything in the specified orientation. Life would be simpler if the vents were above the deck level and then this wouldn't be a problem in the first place. Anyhow, my cheap and reliable solution has just been to sit in the door of the engine room with a flashlight watching the sight glass while the boat is fueled. When the glass tops off (about 20 seconds afterwards actually) I tell my wife to stop pumping and we've never spilled a drop this way. It does make it a two person operation though.
