    evap question

    ok, the evap valve is about to get removed, when i fill up with fuel i get the petrol whiff BUT the car is a demon, boost is off the scale, its like an unguided missile, then half way down the tank boost is lower and the car runs a little weird. so is it possible that the non return valve is duff as well as the evap valve and is leaking boost to the tank. i am going to disconnect the pipe from the fanimold and block the inlet and see what happens

    something else must be wrong, removing the evap system shouldnt have that effect
