I'm seeking advice.
So I played with the gas tank again tonight... The tank looks much better without the evaporation tank and charcoal canister. Is there someone out there running without them? How did you deal with the small hose on the filler neck? I took mine for a drive and got a strong fuel odor after a sharp corner. Fuel sloched in the tank and spilled out of the vent line (now attached to nothing. Is there an alternative or i'm stuck putting back the evaporation tank & charcoal canister? |

QUOTE(si2t3m @ Oct 9 2004, 04:47 AM) Is there someone out there running without them? yes, i junked the whole assembly ... take off canister and expansion tank, take the very small hose that went into the expansion tank and shove it *inside* the big plastic hose that goes out the bottom. take off the 2 hoses that go to the back (engine bay) under the drivers side rockers. detach one from the air-cleaner and plug the hole. detach the other from the fan housing and plug the hole. voila!
