Vapor Canister and no purge valve on EFI - is this right
I know this tread is a bit old but thought i would revive it as my question very much goes along with what has been talked about in this thread.
I'm about to install a charcoal canister in my 69 so that I can run a sealed gas cap and not have to worry about fuel spilling out of the cap or the gas smell.
I'm very familiar with the standard mustang EFI setup using the purge valve as I installed on on my 76. Works great and haven't had any problems.
On my 69 Bronco I have a custom EFI setup using a Holley 950 computer and not using the ford computer. I have looked over the Holley manuals and done quite a bit of searching and have concluded without running a custom circuit there is no way to hook up a purge valve with my setup.
In digging deeper It would seem I could just vent the canister to the air cleaner on my bronco and that should take care of the majority of the fuel smell and allow me to run a sealed gas cap.
I have included a few pics below but wanted to post up to make sure I was thinking this through correctly.
Since this inlet is not on the TB/intake the vacuum should be at a minimum and hooking the canister up like this should not cause a vacuum leak as the air at this point is un-metered by the computer/EFI.
Does anyone see any problems with this?
