[hotzlucas]

So I'm planning on removing the vapor canister I know the risks of the tank exploding and etc. anyways to you guys that have I know you put on a breathing fuel filter at the hose from the tank but what do you do with the vacuum hose from the engine?

Cap the vacuum line at it's source. There really is no performance gain by removing it.

I read somewhere that a person removed canister, capped the vacuum line, left the purge line from tank and ran the other end into the air filter.

There is no reason to remove the canister. If it's in the way in can be relocated to the frame rail right over the steering box. The inner fender is even notched for it.

Thought I read somewhere that it only purges the gas tank for a short time when the engine is first started. Is that correct?

Should that can be cleaned?

There's a filter pad on the bottom that can be replaced.

The tank will implode completely flat.

i disconnected mine for a few days, then reconnected it - the fuel fumes smell was brutal.

I had same issue. I even pulled over thinking my car was leaking fuel. Reinstalled and good to go now.

Took mine out 2.5 years ago. Plugged vacuum line, capped steel vent lines, and put a lawn mower fuel filter on the rubber vent tube going to the sender. No issues and no fuel smell. And I keep it in a tight garage

charcoal canister = worthless space taker - does nothing

Mine was somewhat in the way of my cone filter, so I just took out the screws that hold it in place and laid it on it's side.

I lucked out and picked up an ATR relocation kit from one of the local gents.
