Just don't stand behind your car and smoke, lol.

 

Very nice information in this thread. Will be doing the same to mine later this week.

So correct me if im wrong but the only downfall is having gas vented to atmosphere??

 

Bump.

we need more people to chime in on this. im wondering the same thing now that i have AEM ems.

 

Bump

 

As I understand it, the AEM only controls the purge solenoid at one TPS setting. It will only open the valve above the user set TPS value. There is no way to turn it off above that set value. So, if it's turned on above say 20% throttle, it's always open even in boost. This, I suspect, is why I'm getting a strong fuel smell after boosting. The only purpose of the vent valve is for evap testing, so that's not really needed. In theory, a check valve in between the purge solenoid and the fuel tank to prevent boost from entering, should render the system functional.

 

Do you need to drain the gas tank before removing the canister?

 

no you don't. but expect the canister to be pretty much full. once the bolts and hoses are lose just ease it down.

 

What do u guys do about the cel? Is there a solenoid i can but to take off the cel?..in nyc cant have it on during inspection

 

Curious also, will deleting this on the factory ECU not cause a CEL??
