Oh no, sorry to hear that
I removed all the wiring to the EVAP system, but all the components are still there. So as far as I can tell, I'm just trapping vapor in the charcoal canister but never purging it, so eventually the activated carbon in there will just get saturated. I'm really worried about venting gas fumes in my garage, so trying to figure out the safest solution here. I'm considering a pressure valve with a fairly low threshold that would stay closed when the car is just sitting there, but would open to allow vapor flow as soon as any pressure builds up. The other thing I'm worried about is what would happen in the (hopefully never) case of a roll over. I wouldn't want gasoline running out through the open line and all over the ground.
So ideally, I'm thinking a small pressure valve between the line coming off the tank and before I connect it to the line going out the back of the car. Then cap off the other line (goes to the intake manifold I think) and remove everything else.
