Hi, is there a tube supposed to connect to the bottom of the canister?

Good question, I'll have a closer look and see what's what. It does seem to be emanating from up front as I can't explain how anything from the rear could find it's way up front against the wind when I'm driving?

Oh man, I've spent almost 12 hrs chasing the lines, replacing vacuum hoses, tightening every nut in sight. I found a totally broken rubber hose from the evap cann to the fuel tank and figured that MUST be it. Replaced the rubber hose and fitted my new very tight metal locking gas cap too. Nope...

Ah, OK I have a soundbar over head which I've fitted with component speakers and a crossover along with a sub in the rear truck space. Then as they were in poor condition I fitted 6x9s into the sides if my centre console for added roundness. Wasted at reasonable speeds with the roof down but...

Hi, sorry i meant the rubber tube from the evap is a little perished and then it goes down to a metal hose under the cab. I may replace the rubber hose bit.

Hi, did you have to remove or tilt the dash away from the windshield etc or did you manage to fit them up behind the speaker grills without moving anything? Thinking of doing the same but can't be bothered to pull the dash. Plus I think there are a family of racoons living back there.

OK I blew down the tube off the evap and even though it was hard as heck, my gf confirmed she could hear a hissing sound from under or around the rear left side of the tank..ish. So I'm hoping that's a good thing and the tube is working. I did notice it's quite perished, no visible holes but...

OK, had a really good look, took off the gas flap, filler nozzle guard and took off the underjeep plastic guard to look up and around. No leaks, no perishing rubber, no corroded metal nothing really. All checked out. I did notice fumes around the filler area so I'm really thinking it's the cap...

Haha, never even thought about that, I'll go do it now as it's early evening over here and finally the sun is out. I'll report back.

That's a good point- nope, no leaks at all.

Hi folks, On my eternal journey to thwart the petrol fumes in my cab after coming to a stop, I rechecked and replaced as best I could all my vacuum hoses and even took the Evap apart and filled with new charcoal and filters etc. Then noticed by accident that when I lower my fuel flap, solid...

Where from? Mine is running rich and I want to adjust the mix too.

I gave it a thorough cleaning quite recently as a possible solution to this issue but I'll do it again as you never know!

Thanks for the detailed reply. I will do all that today and report back with my findings.

Yup, I stripped down the plugs and cleaned them thoroughly , very dirty so I hit it with a wire brush and got them shiny. I also took apart the dash lights and dials and did the same with switches and connections just to make certain. Tomorrow I'll tackle the front turn signals to complete the...

I went around the earths yesterday including making really good ones on the rear light box bolts and rewiring my headlights with better connections. It may just be me but it seems to have made a difference. She didn't chug in the first few miles like she has been and seemed to sit at a much more...

I had this annoying problem too but on non LED bulbs. EU spec as I'm in the UK. I checked the wiring from the rear clusters and realised I had mixed the polarity on one of them so although they work as indicators they also triggered the dash to light in time as well. I switched the polarity of...

Sorry posted Dash Panel query by accident. Will try to delete.

Hi all, there is a 10 Yr old thread on this but I thought I'd start it again. My 1989 2.5l idle fluctuates between 800 and about 600 and sometimes when I take her out she does that at red lights and even stalled on me yesterday. It's noticeably worse when I turn my headlights on. Is that...
