Deleting fuel vapor canister - good or bad?

jackcarter1971Member

Hey Folks:

Is deleting/removing the fuel vapor canister a good or bad idea? (1971 model yr) What are the pro's and con's?

Currently I have removed the vapor canister, to install a billet dual water tank mount, due to install a 180... one thing, leads to another...

If it is ok to leave off??? should I just cut and or remove the line coming from the gas tank and plug it?

Or do I need to keep some sort of vapor release system? If so what??? and where would it be best be positioned?

So in summary.
1. Is it ok to delete? or not.
2. If yes, ok to delete, what is best way to plug line or tank?
3. If no, what should I do, either with existing canister or new parts? both in terms of what new parts? and where should they be positioned?

Thoughts?

Cheers
