Zusammenfassung:	A vent shut-off assembly configured to manage vapor recirculation venting during a refueling event on a fuel tank configured to deliver fuel to an internal combustion engine includes a main housing and an actuator assembly. The main housing selectively vents to a carbon canister. The actuator assembly is at least partially housed in the main housing. The actuator assembly comprises a cam assembly having a cam shaft that includes a first cam and a second cam. The first cam has a profile that actuates a first valve that selectively opens a first port fluidly connected to a first vent in the fuel tank. The second cam has a profile that actuates a second valve that selectively opens a second port fluidly connected to a recirculation line that routes vapor back to a filler neck of the fuel tank.
