5T4R7ET N/A Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 when you removed the charcoal canister did just cut the little pipes that go into it?? or block the off??one if them goes to a sensor, i think its blue, and has another same size pipe with goes to throttle body (it think)??

nastyrash 2003 Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 yep fella the other test is the cylinder leakage test, and to remove the charcoal filter just remove all inlet pipes and canister, leave the fuel tank venting to atmospher and block off any pipes going into the inlet track, glad you like fella every little helps, did you manage to get them sparks.

nastyrash 2003 Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 What is a charcol canister????My mate said the other day about taking it out, have you any pic's of how you left the pipes???its a item that is for the enviroment once again. it stops the fuel tank venting to atmospher and recerculates the vapour back into the engine mainly on cold start up. the reason u take thm out is thy inpeed the fuel pump by restricting the flow creating a vacum in the tank wich pulls the fuel back from the pump. wen filling your car with fuel if wen u open the filler cap thr is a vacum (or hissing noise) thn get rid of the charcole canister.

nastyrash 2003 Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 if your tank vacums it trys to pull fuel back into the tank making the pump work harder. wen you remove this it allows the fuel pump to free flow. really basic pro moding. you can even shorten the tank vent to the tank and this will help even more. cant belive its not know on here. its like wen you fill a coke bottle with water and turn it up side down with no hole in the top it will try and hold the water in the bottle because of the vacume created but if you put a hole in the top it flows out fast.
