Default Tremendous tank pressure

Hey guys,

so I went to fill up the jag after it sitting for a month and When I took the cap off the tank there was TONS of pressure pushing out not sucking in.
(see video Below)

I have already replaced this tank rochester valve

What gives? any thoughts?

Although the GM parts fits and works well as a replacement, did you notice that the arrow on the valve points in the opposite direction? Valve must be turned around from the OE installation. A slightly longer hose is needed to facilitate this.
