+1 if you hook a vaccum line up to the vent on your tank you'll pull a vaccum on your tank and, not to mention your sucking fuel out of your tank wich in turn pulls a vaccum on your tank, and you'll get no fuel feed.

If the gap is to wide , it is harder for the spark to jump the gap and could damage it internally .
A gap tool is like $1.99 @ pepboys .
But if you can't find one you can also use a feeler gauge set . Just add em up(the thickness) and stack em together
