Default vacuum line on charcoal canister

Just finishing up my swap. Its a b16a2 (99-00 si) into a 94 DX civic. I have this vacuum line here on the charcoal canister and i dont know where to plug it in.

My buddy has an EK with the same swap and he doesnt have this line on his canister.

Where should i plug this into, or what should i do with it

just remove the canister, it's worthless. make sure all your vac fittings on the intake manifold are used or plugged and your fine.

i figured you were running ODBI since its going in a 94. ODBI will not throw a code. if your keeping the b16a2 harness and ECU you will need to verify ODBII will not throw a code if removed, im not certain

i would need to see a pic with out you hand in the way of the canister and maby an arrow from where it comes off the canister. if you are talking a bout the little one it goes to the man i cant think of what its called but it looks like a top hat. and it screwed right to the top of the dx manifold and has a 2 wire plug for it the line goes from the canister to it then from it to the intake vacume sorce. and the a2 has a spot for it on the manifold it is just not drilled

here you go. On the DX intake manifold the vacuum line connects to the purge control solenoid valve (which is the top hat looking thing you're talking about). I dont see anywhere to connect this line on the b16 manifold. Check out the helms manual pics too. There is no spot for it to go...can someone else confirm that the only thing to do it to remove it

well for BAR, i kept it intact... i just need to get another clamp for IM side, and get my hands on an OBD1 EVAP PURGE unit (my buddy has one). then i'm good to go! But yeah, if where you live doesn't require stuff like that you're cool.

It's good for about 3 mpg. "Block it it's worthless"? Man, you ******* idiots and your comments are worthless. Just **** all over the environment because you're lazy. Enjoy your hurricanes down there in Florida thanks to global warming.
