Carbon canister delete how to

[Scott-R]

If I buy a new canister will the ticking go away?

[Wazzzer]

nope the ticking is the N80 valve in the canister

Just to add to this, I've just done this and it is slightly different on an AUM.

The pipe that goes from the throttle body and then T's into the carbon canister doesn't run to the bulkhead and along it to the TIP.

Instead it runs to a hardline that runs underneath the FPR, at the other end there is another small hose that joins it to another hardline which runs behind the coolant temp sensor. The other end of that hardline is joined to the TIP via a hose.

Done it! I kept the solenoid attached and tucked it under the expansion bottle. As this still keeps an electrical loop/resistance, will it keep fault codes at bay? Or does it somehow measure the flow or something?

To answer your question, what you did is fine. the resistor is only to make the clicking stop. this is what i have done for now, but i do have a resistor in the glovebox ready for when i can be arsed to do it!

hi how did you wire the resistor

[Dalo Harkin]

when you take the plug off the carbon canister, chop the connector off there are 2 wires, connect one to either end of the resistor with a choc block or solder them

hi just wondering would deleting this give any exhaust emissions problems that would fail an MOT? hope that makes sense!
