Topic: Gas dripping from evap canister

[Fiercefirstgen559]

Just did 22re swap on my first gen and fuel leaks out of the evap canister when the truck is in the sun. Comes from the bottom tube. Any info would help

seems like there 2 lines and you can  have them backwards,
1 might be the return,

Well I have one hose from the tank to the top of the canister, one small hose from the top of the canister to the purge on the intake, then the return hose from the fuel rail to the tank. Where does the hose that's on the bottom of the canister supposed to go. Is it just a vent? Or does it go someplace?

ok now I remember
swap the soft lines at the tank
one is up high in the tank so air but not fuel can escape.

guarantee it to work

So far it seems to be fixed. Drove about 30 miles round trip to the recycle yard today and the tube is dry. Thanks a lot. Easy fix

i had the same problem when i did an efi swap on my 83. kept dripping lots of gas from the same place. it was the two fuel lines mixed up at the gas tank!
