TurboTobz Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Ive read about these being removed some say it's unsafe and will adversely affect what mpg we do get, others say vent pipe to atmosphere pointing under car and remove it.Has anyone got any idea if it is safe or will affect mpg a lot?My old starlet didn't have one, and it looks ugly if I can remove it I'd definitely like to.Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Mines been removed, i just vented it to atmosphere, i have heard its an mot failure though Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TurboTobz Posted February 6, 2013 Author Share Posted February 6, 2013 Understandable, thanks mate. I'm going to go tug the bugger out, did you leave the hose on it but 180 it back so it vents under car? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 I think mines on a pipe with a small filter on it, either an old fuel filter or some one way valve or a pulse reducer thing, and it goes behind the inlet and out of site a bit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lew91 Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 I was going to attempt this but got put off by the dangers. Didn't think about a filter tho, good idea. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
