fuel eating

ok I'm selling my 4 stroke but before it goes out i wanna fix a fuel eating problem let me explain my issue. awhile back i was having a bogging and dieing out issue I traced the problem to the fuel tank and fuel vent canister. i took off the canister plugged the hole to the manifold and attached a tube to the gas tank outlet so fuel wouldnt spill out and at the same time some air could get into the tank. This was all probably just a vacuum leak which I didnt know at the time but i diregarded the canister. unfortunatly this quick fix left me eating fuel like a mofo. also i get erratic gauge reading. does anybody know what the problem may be. am i spilling fuel through the top of the tank, burning too much fuel through the carb ect. I have a feeling maybe its evaporating too fast the the top gas tank vent hole. maybe i should just plug the hole.
