When I was stripping the tub I wasn't as respectful to the vapor lines running under the rockers from engine to tank as I might have been. Also I am not sure where they all are (no smiley for what an idiot).
At any rate they seem to be a PVC material that is either supposed to be kind of stiff or has hardened with the age. They look black, and I suppose they may have started that way. Other than that they look like tygon tubing. I can find no replacement source. I probably won't have space for the catalytic converter in the 3.2, but I see no reason not to use this device for reducing emissions. But what should I use? Great thing is that this group will find me an answer (of some sort). Thanks so much! |

sorry for the highjack but somewhat related, is this why the tank can build up pressure or vaccum? is it the lines being blocked or the charcoal canister? ive read where the charcoal needs to be replaced too,
btw the airlines from a truck seem like a good idea. |
