Thanks, but your car is a 98 with a metal tank. The can on yours was behind the tire as you have said. My car is a 2000 and the charcoal can is above the tank. I looked at it and I can see it --but it looks like i will have to at least lower the tank to get it out. I would like to know--- do I have to drop the tank to get the can,and the lines out or can I just lower it without having to discon. the fuel lines and wires?

Couple pics from my LT1 Camaro, not sure how it differs from year to year though...
grabbed some pictures of the EVAP removal I did. This pic is of the actual canister located behind the drivers rear tire. Just kinda wiggled it free.
Here are the lines I pulled from the engine bay. The little block piece is attached to the intake by a 7 mm bolt. I ended up capping the TB where it connected to.
Now just need to put a filter on the line to vent it...

I left all the crap on top of the tank, and just cut the line where I could see it and put a small filter on the end of the line so it wouldn't be a way for dirt or whatever to get in the fuel tank.
That stuff up there, I don't have a clue what it is or does, but I am sure if you take all that off you'll smell gas all the time.

Id like to see a start to finish write up of this! I've been wondering about deleting this for some time. So I can just remove the selonoid and all the lines all the way back to the tank, plug the intake, remove the can ister, and then just put a filter on the line from the canister to the tank? 98 car here also.
just a fuel filter proballay, but the Evap vent line on the 99+ setups are little bit big like 1/2 looked like to me. So you might have to get a adaptor fitting, or put some 3/8 line insdie the stock larger (1/2?). For a filter like a old carb style with 3/8 nipples. Somthing with some cottem pleets that will stop dirt, but still vent gases.
I put everything back on the tank, and left the sustem. So my car completes the Evap readness monitors for NYS ODBII inspections :snky: I don't remeber 100% but I dont think my 02 cleared form the LTs. It wasn't that much, the 4.6 charcoal canister on the tank, the rear Evap purg noid. and a few light nylon lines. And you can remove the short harnes that gose to that noid to the FP/ and ABS connecter in the car of the seat, a few oz. The metal line to under the hood is a few, and the noil under the hood, and plastic lines to it and to the inlet of the intaake. And the wireing if you what to pull it form the harness.
