I disagree with all the bawlin 'n hand wringin' over carbon cans. Yes they work when hooked up, but sounds like yours is really really hacked.
First, your cap is NOT vented. It should say "pressure vacuum" and that is more of a positive/ negative pressure "pop off" NOT a vent.
You need to get back there WITH A SHOP MANUAL and look over the "can" in the rear where all the vent lines converge from the tank, and make sure that is all hooked up, and replace the rubber lines for deterioration.
IF I were doing this, I'd add the original "pre can" style vent, which is a tube brazed into the filler up high just inside the trunk. This then goes into an "upsided down U" and goes back down along the filler tube through the trunk seal, and ends (open ended) into the rear frame rail, where it can drain if overfilled.
Alternately, maybe braze a line into the TOP of the rear vent can and run that up as high as possible, then back down as the original did.
PLEASE consider adding a vapor return system as I mentioned. THEY DO WORK end of story. You can use your original front -to- rear 1/4" line for the return, but some of these had a check ball up front. You can recognize it by an odd "crimped looking" section in the first couple of inches. Just cut that off.
What I'm running on my mild 360/ headers
Red pump in the rear, to mechanical pump. The mechanical may go away
Inexpensive spacer about 3/8 under the carb. If I'd done this over, I'd have plugged the head crossover. Edelbrock 600
Wix return filter 33041, plumbed to 1/4 " return line.
This has eliminated almost ALL my starting problems. On a hot soak in the sun on a hot day, it might spin the starter for 5 - 8 seconds.
I get in, turn on the key to run the pump a few seconds while fastening my belts and shutting the door. So maybe 10 seconds of "pump time." This gives the pump time to flush vapor out of the front line, build up "clean" pressure, flush heated vapor/ fuel out and fill the carb bowl.
Regardless of what Danny boy would have us think, the engineers weren't always thinking of "our best interest" Pinto's n Vegas are proof of that
