Hi all,
Getting fuel smell in garage - time to correct! Noticed that I do not have Charcoal canister. Given the photo, is it possible to place upfront? I replaced the FI with modern setup on a 2056 and it will be more difficult to set up in engine compartment area. Also, does the rubber hose in photo attach to the canister? If it is possible in frunk, what other brackets/equip would I require (as I have yet to purchase the charcoal tank.) Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!! Have an awesome 4th!!!  |

Much more convenient to locate the can in the engine bay, you only need a single small hose through the tunnel to feed it, rather than two large diameter hoses run down the side under the side valence to circulate fan air to/from the can in the frunk.
Not condoning this but I have ocasionally seen the output hose from the carbon canister, or even the small diameter hose direct from the expansion tank be turned down to exit under the car in some safe location for situations like this. Its just fuel vapor. |
