Environmental Protection Canister ::::::::::> Question
I’m assuming this thing is filled with charcoal. I’m tempted to remove it.
What have you other folks done with it? If removed, what did you do with the hoses?  Ps::::> Did I really have to remove the radiator to remove the battery box to remove the smog crap to get to the lights? thanx |

Re: Environmental Protection Canister ::::::::::> Question
leave the smog stuff alone. Cali keeps on talkin about reverting to there old smog laws, making these trucks new enough to need smogged.
Even if they don't chainge the laws, it is still a punnishable offense to remove smog items What light were you replacing to have to do all that??? |

Actually it wasn’t just the “lights”… I had to replace the wire harness. A while back I replaced the alternator and did not pay attention to the location of the wires. They ended up making contact with exhaust manifold:::::> melted, shorted out and the harness caught fire… |

Re: Environmental Protection Canister ::::::::::> Question
ewwwwwww.
Been there, but mine was from being retarded. I was replacing the belt on the alt... loosened it up so it would just flop over... it flopped all the way over to where the stud hit the intake (long water pump set up, alt on passenger side) I was amazed at how long it took for the burns on my hand to heal up from where I grabbed the harness out of panic instead of the batttery terminal... which was loose, but not removed. |
