Default Carbon Cansiter help??

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.

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. =
