If the fuel tank on an 87 F30 is accidently overfilled, where does the
overflow go? I seen to remember a post earlier in this group that said
it went into the bildge and not overboard. Can anyone confirm this?
Thanks,
Don

You don’t want to overfill, but if it happens it will come out of the deck fill or the fuel tank air vent through hull.

I had this, and it was because one of the fuel filler hoses was not
clamped tight enough
