Title: Charcoal Canister
Post by: BlakeMcAlavy on February 16, 2006, 06:55:00 pm

I was wondering, since there is lines, from the carb to the canister, IF i wanted to get rid of the canister what would i do with the lines from the carb, cap them off?
Because Im wanting to put a fuel cell in the bad, already have it, and im just goin to run a loop towards the ground from the cell instead of the canister.?

You can always cap off the vacuum lines you don't want to use.  Just go to a auto parts store and get the rubber cap ends....different sizes.

Here in Phoenix AZ they check to make sure you have a charcoal canister when you run through emissions. So if you have emissions testing where you live check to see if you have to have it first before trashing it.

We don't have to either here in Richmond, Va, but I am keeping all the stuff stock just in case.  You never know,  one day....

Here in Texas they only require anything between 2 and 24 years to have the testing... my 76 is exempt. But the testing is only in the major cities like Austin which im near, Dallas, and Houston. If I missed any others just correct me.
