  • Evaporative System

    Got an amazing idea the other day, but I'm not gonna work on it until I make sure its at leat almost practical. So I have some questions...
    The three fuel lines that run into the engine compartment from the drivers side...that have the little foam insulation around them. I think the one closest to the front of the vehicle is the evaporive fuel recovery thing. Am I right?

    Supposing I am, that line is about to connect to the very top front and enter the engine directly behind the throttlebody. Is the gas liquid at that point? What about pressure I think it says like 5 psi or something near there. Does the gas just dump in right there? Is the evap system on all the time? Is there gas in it all the time? Like is there any time that line would ever be empty or if there ever would be really low pressure.

    Basically: What can you tell me about that particular line in as much detail as possible.

    awwww
    no responses. I think I'm going to ditch this project anyway due to safety concerns and blow-up-my-car concerns

      Personally? No Idea.

      My Evap line needs repaired, I think it's clipped in, and the clip part seemed to have broke off...so I have to keep it held together some other way.

      :o

        I was just messing with my evap line the other day ( the one with the green cap ) and it has the tag that has the EVAP warning on it, and it says 1 psi.
