I had to remove my charcol canister due to problems with it. There are 4 lines coming from it. Two on top are vacum, the other one on top is the vent going to the tank. Does anyone know what the large one coming out of the bottom of the canister is for?

Yep. Talk it all off, light it on fire, and throw it a million miles away. But be sure to unplug the harness that goes into it, and plug the vacuum line at the throttle body with a vacuum cap. Makes everything MUCH neater.

ok so removing the canister I'll have to plug the lines that go to the TB, how about the vaccum lines that go to the EGR and BPT near the back of the intake manifold, can those be cancelled out and tap the vaccum lines as well?? MY car seems to be bogginh when warmed up, i beleive these vaccums have something to do with it. Thanks for your replies.
