Katalyzt13 Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 What is this black canister? Can I rip it out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kryptronic Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 That is the evaporation canister for your fuel system. Don't rip it out, fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katalyzt13 Posted May 25, 2018 Author Share Posted May 25, 2018 So, it should have a line running to my intake? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete M Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 It contains fumes from the gas tank and allows the engine to suck them in and burn them. there should be a line running to it from the tank too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyComanche Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 For the record you can delete it. But it's part of the emissions system so it may be illegal to do so, and you need to go to a vented cap or run the vent from the tank elsewhere. On my XJ it is run into a small filter along with a bunch of the other vents. I retained the restrictor/poppet valve, and it will probably smell like fuel if you don't.

johnj92131 Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 I failed my last California smog check because I was missing the two connections to that canister. It is easier to just fix it with 2 hoses than go to the effort of taking it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
