Should get the manifold back tonight so hopefully put it all back together tomorrow so in the mean time I got rid of the charcoal canister and wired in a resistor and hidden it, then feed a pipe for the gases to vent through the arch, will attach it to down near the front bumper. Also heat wrapped the downpipe.

What the point of a charcoal canister, emissions?

Does the engine run different without it?

[jonrandom]

Yes mate filters out fuel emissions. From what people say everything runs the same, mines still on stands so dont know first hand. Just fit the resister so you dont get fault codes and vent out of the bay. Removing it gets rid of some weight/cluter from the bag and potentional vac leaks.
