Hello all,
So during my recent work on my spares or repair Clio 182. I have decided to remove the EVAP system (as many of you have done) before due to a dead solenoid and a cracked carbon canister. The electrical and intake mani pipe are obvious what to do and have been mentioned lots of other times in many other posts. I have concerns/questions about the tank ventilation. I initially blanked it off under the rear bumper, but after opening the filler yesterday it was clear it was under significant positive pressure (not a hot day) now I'm not so certain on it.
What have you done to complete the tank ventilation system? in detail... have you thought about air in and out of the tank? liquid leakage under cornering or roll over? the release of fuel vapour in hot or enclosed areas? road water/dirt/oils/debris getting into the tank?
