Went out to my car this morning and i noticed a drip coming from underneath the bumper. Had a look and it was coming from the bottom of the charcoal canister.
Gave it a little shake and some more liquid came out. Smelt it as it went over my hand and it was fuel.
Started the car and gave it a few revs and after a few mins i could see that the hose connected to the top of the canister had fuel coming through it.
Thought that was weird and traced the pipe line and it lead to the fuel, obviously.
I did over fuel it yesterday by a mistake, could it be the over fuelled fuel coming out through the pipe?
If not any suggestions?
Yeah, get rid of that charcoal canister. ;D
You mean you filled it up too much, that should have just gone down the overflow.
Over pressure in tank drawing the fuel into it? I remember we used to remove the O ring in the petrol cap to help.
Other than that, cant help you sorry.
just a quick question, when you remove the canister do you block the pipe that returns to the fuel tank? its been a few years since ive had a g40 so cant remember. cheers
no leave it as a breather hose
thanks
so basically u block every thing els off, the oil vapour pipe, vacume to thottle body and the hose from the charcole canister to the manifold, and u get ride off the little vacume valve thing lol, does that all sound about right by any chance haha.
du u need to du anything about dirt getting in the hose frm the tank 2 the canister that will be left unblocked or will it b ok
chears all
