March 16, 201015 yr That's not for the emissions, it's for venting fuel vapors. It's called an Evap canister. Leave it in place.

March 16, 201015 yr you can get rid of it but it requires running a vent to the tank itself and then you will always smell fuel, i had to do it on my s10 when i bodydropped it.

OBDII is pretty sensitive to change and not easily adaptable as OBDI. the tank is upright.... vertical? and there is but an inch between body and fuel tank where all hoses/wires go in .. so im not sure a vented cap would do well... even if i fould one that would fit! but the hies come below the car... could i perhaps vent safly down there??? and im also wondering whats best long run wise on this.. is this why i started getting really bad fuel milage in town? i mean my solinoed has been GONE for 8 months... so it has not been working properly for atleast that long.. i just noticed that it was hanging today from my car.. but i noiced wire that went no where about 8 months ago..AKA THE SOLINOED.

March 16, 201015 yr IT's all good Jon.This could be a reason for the bad mileage, but with the miles you have on that baby, I'd just contribute it to old age. If you haven't had any adverse effects already, I wouldn't worry about it.
March 16, 201015 yr it'll almost definately throw a code, probaly already is??? if you can get that length of hose into a somewhat upright positiona dn can finda vent or even one of those cheap crappy small ricer filters than you could do that but just keep in mind that the fumes are themost dangerouse part of gasoline.
March 17, 201015 yr Author keep in mind that the fumes are themost dangerouse part of gasoline.and that is why i am worried.
March 29, 201015 yr keep in mind that the fumes are themost dangerouse part of gasoline.and that is why i am worried.Hmm, well if you went the route of putting a new/used one back on maybe you could isolate it from the vibrating undercarriage somehow with some sort of insulation... weatherstripping, maybe some duct tape and Maxi pads or something?? lol MacGuyver that shit Jon
