Oh, ok. Probably so.

The pump return line is not related to venting. GM used it on some apps to stave off vapor lock. My point is many cars did not have it and had no issues. I still think there are a number of answers being thrown around that have no question yet.

The OE tank has a vent line, so he likely did something to that line. Or it might also have a one way check vent that allows air in, been a while, I forget. Or he put the wrong (unvented) cap on. If it were totally unvented the tank would collapse, and it would be difficult to fill up.

OP, I hope the tank is low when you try to pull it out. Full tanks are heavy! Also be careful not to bend the filler neck. GM banged that up in 3rd gens, all 1 piece.
