Default Where does this line go? *Pic*

Im pretty sure it had something to do with the evap or egr, am i right?

Can I plug this up? Im pretty sure its shooting out fuel. Seeing as there is fuel all over my engine.

well im looking at the diagram ( https://www.hondapartsdeals.co...8.gif ) and im trying to figure out where it goes.

Im pretty sure I dont have the charcoal canister anymore.. Im wondering if I can just put a plug in it and tape it up and be good.

If not, where should I route it?

It never was plugged into the TB to begin with. Its coming from the fuel line. The hard fuel lines that go to the back gas tank. Thats why im thinking this is the problem of why fuel is all over my engine. I just got my car finally driving last night, and this is the next problem I have encountered.

according to that diagram im looking at, the piece of line that is open is number 51.

Anyways, i blocked it with a screw, taped it up real good, and took it for a test drive around my block. its still overheating like it was last night. last night i thought it was because of the unplugged ects, but today i put a new one in hoping that would fix my problem. it still runs hot, it seemed though it took longer to get hot, so i must be on the right track. tomorrow i'll put in a new thermostat. although, even though after plugging this line i still have a fuel leak. the fuel is mainly all over the driver side axle area. it may be my fuel rail, my injectors, or something else i dont know about. I'll have to look into it when its not dark outside.

ok i looked at it and that is the for the charcoal canister and i was wrong about it connecting to the tb it does go back where you were talking about. but i have had mine disconnected for about 2 years so it shouldnt be spitting fuel.

That charcoal canister line goes all the way back to the gas tank. You can cut it off around the rear wheels and it won't be anywhere near your engine bay...it definately shouldn't be spitting out fuel though.

It is a line to control fuel vapors from your tank, if you ever fill your tank up to much, fuel will go threw that line. Once it hits the charcoal canister, your canister becomes ruined.

This isn't the return line that is supposed to be connected to your regulator is it?

No, this is the line that feeds into the charcoal canister.

If this is the charcoal canister line should there be fuel?
