Default Who all has removed EVAP?

I know this is fuel system related, but most people with extensive fuel mods are FI guys, so...


Who has removed it. What did you do with the hard line to the front. Do you have tank filling problems? How did you vent the tank?

I deleted it all together.

Used the hard line as my new return. left the line coming from the tank in the back just hanging there venting.

No filling or smell problems some people talk about.

Ok, so from smokinHawk's picture, which lines are you guys leaving disconnected on the tank?

Also, I havent dropped the tank so I dont really know, but the evap canister in the tank... is that removeable?

Hmm that looks familiar.

OK you see the yellow zip tie attached to the black hose? that is the vent line, you can see on that pick how i pinched off the hose, i first thought when pressure built up it would press pass that, well i was wrong, i couldnt fill my gas tank cause the pump nossle though it was full do to no venting. So i cut the zip tie and used that hose just sticking out like that withough the zip tie and everything has been working fine, you cant smell gas and no leaking.

i also took off the charcoal evap canster filter so look on how i routed the other line for that. that is a black box, i maybe save a pound or two from removing it.

Good thread. I've been having trouble putting gas in my tank also and throwing an EVAP code. Its kind of embarassing trying to fill up your tank and having gas go all over the place and you've only put in .12 cents worth. LOL

Thanks
