i have a 99 gsr, my charcoal canister has a hole in it b/c it rubbed against my axle. Should i replace it or will it hurt to run my car without it? please let me know asap. thanks

 

i dont think it will hurt anything, u just may smell fuel

 

im running my car without that, but dam it smells, but whatever

 

well it seems to run fine, no more coolant leaks or any thing, it does smell like raw *** though when i start it in the garage and its freezing and it idles low as hell until it warms up. here's a pic of the bay

 

hey hows your gas mileage,mine seemed to be bad after i took out canister? anyone no if this is true?

It is directly linked to your fuel system. That's why I was saying it makes sense.

Not sure if it does hurt your mileage or not, but it makes sense.

A buddy has ran his boosted LS for 1,000+ miles with out a canister, so I don't see it causing any problems.

 

i havnt noticed it really, but then again i dont drive this car everyday anymore, its winter and cold in ohio so it sits in the garage unless i dont feel like driving the supra

 

nice and clean thats way i like 'em!!!!!!!!!!!!

Get back to A/C

 

ok the only problem i ran into with swapping my manifold and deleted the evap canister was this. one of these lines somehow was ran to my canister and made it fill up with coolant and rubb on my axle and now there's a hole in it. the green circled runs to my block the purple circled ran to my canister, but now it just capped off, where is this supposed to go please help

 

dude your gas is just evaporating into the air. hello it is not called an evap for nothing.

 

I would put the canister back on (another one without a hole of course), but figure out why it's rubbing against the axle. Did you not have it properly secured in the bracket on the frame rail?

 

ya ima put mine back on too, it smells bad, and my gas milage is horrible,was never this bad it has to be the canister

Did you put the canister back in ? And if so did your gas mileage change ?

 

no didnt put it back in , i guess my mpg is ok so , not going in

 

well just hope you dont have to get e-checked. lol you need to have that put on. it stores vapor from the tank and uses them when your at crusing speeds. your mileage will be a lot better.

 

do you just pull it out or what, what hoses do you plug and what do you do with the other one?

this is correct.

 

my civic is having a problem with the charcoal canister as well. It filled with coolant and im not sure why. If anyone has any suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated.
