Default Pefect Place for Fuel Vent when removing your EVAP Carcoal Canister...

When you remove the carcoal canister from most civics and integras there is a plastic piece that runs out the bottom the the canister. When you remove the carcoal canister also the fuel vent off of the fuel tank is usually left open behind the motor and releases fuel vapors into your engine bay, which I am certain isnt very good. I used a piece of 5/8 heater hose and ran hose clamps to connect the fuel vent line that is in the middle of the firewall to the plastic connector that is at the bottom of the passanger side of the firewall so the vapors no just go out the bottom of the car. Problem solved.

The fuel vent line on my integra was just under an inch and was right in the middle of the brake lines on the firewall.

for about 5 bucks and 10 min should be better than having those fuel vapors possibly catch your car on fire...
