So I pulled out the charcoal canister on my RB25 DET now I need to put it back in to pass EPA testing. Can anyone explain or show me a pic of where the 3 hoses run? I can't remember for the life of me.

Thanks in advance

The top line on the little diaphragm goes to maniflod vacuum, the one below goes to throttle body and the bigger is from tank.

What's the thinking behind taking out the canister to "tidy up"? Does it cramp your street cred and make you a laughing stock?

Apart from doing what it's supposed to which is stop raw fuel vapours getting into the air it actually saves you money. Those fuel vapours aren't just getting wasted, your engine actually burns them to power your car. Magic isn't it?

Imagine the money you could save on fines too.

He has already been served in another thread where he didn't want to listen and still removed it.

also the info on how to remove and replace has been covered many times on sau, with pictures for those who need illustrated guidance.

Firstly, it got me +10 street cred. I appreciate the response and understand stupid shit like this is frustrating but you didn't need to be a smart arse.

Secondly it wasn't me that "got served" in another thread.

Lastly, thanks for the help, I got it sorted now.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
