I noticed a gas fume smell in my car today I traced it down to my carbon canister having a broken smaller plastic nipple. I guess this is the tank or feed side. I did a emissions removal so the big pipe isnt hooked up to anything on the driver side. What are my options? I put the two hoses together so it would not vent fuel fume right over the turbo. that could be bad.

Get a new canister. Don't delete it, makes no sense.

You could get a new canister or just lengthen the lines and run them to vent under the car.

Let me Re-Phrase

VERY VERY VERY BAD.

You're going to pressurize your tank under boost and richen the mixture under vacuum. Delete it properly or get a new one

These parts are easy enough to find in the boneyards, don't bother with a new one.

the only one I can find that is close is the FD one for about $113. the way I have it right now is loosing feed thru a hole right after the air filter. tank should never pressuize and the vapors go thru the engine.

Was able to find on at a junk yard, but the lady charge me for a coil pack plus $3 core charge. I also ran a line to the engine so it is back to the way it should be. This killed to birds with one stone. the cap on the nipple was falling off. =
