"textContent": "An improved fuel level responsive peelaway action valve for vehicle fuel tanks, in which a float moves a valve closure element into sealing contact with a vapor venting outlet, and then pulls or \"peels\" the valve element off the vapor venting outlet when fuel level drops. The valve closure element comprises a thin, flexible sealing portion for engaging the vapor venting outlet with low sealing forces, and a stiffened marginal portion acted on by a rigid cage or frame which is connected to the float. As the float drops, the cage contacts the stiffened marginal portion and levers the valve element off the venting outlet.",
