GasGas EC250Hi guys, I'm fitting a return fuel line on my S40 T4 and was thinking of using the existing line back to the tank from the charcoal canister. Can I bypass the canister or will this cause me problems? I understand it's only for purging fuel vapour anyway so I can't see it being a major problem. Any help appreciated guys. Thanks, Mitch.

Thanked 541 Times in 383 PostsHi guys, thanks. I've now decided to run an extra 8mm fuel hose to the fuel rail and leave the charcoal as it is. Pyaap said people have had problems using the charcoal pipe as a return. Just waiting for the tig welder to do weld on my fuel rail unions now!
