I don't recall a charcoal canister on my 77 though. | | | Re: 72 Dodge Evaporation Control | Joined: Jun 2010 Posts: 18,286 Likes: 559 | Joined: Jun 2010 Posts: 18,286 Likes: 559 | Its vented inside the van ?

But I could very well be wrong. The old Dodge B vans website had a really good discussion of this system with pictures and factory diagrams. I wish I could find it again.

Reed - that is correct about the four corners (from my research) but if I am not mistaken there were only 4 lines coming out of the tank (I’ll have to look again). If I want to swap motors and fuel tank and lines I will eliminate this tube but do I “have†to install a charcoal canister (I don’t recall one on my 77) and my 77 certainly doesn’t have the system that is on my 72 | | | Re: 72 Dodge Evaporation Control | Joined: Aug 2001 Posts: 12,107 Likes: 37 Maniac | Maniac Joined: Aug 2001 Posts: 12,107 Likes: 37 | The charcoal canister is a great odea that saves you money and protects the environment while have absolutely ZERO negative impact on the performance or economy of your engine. All it does is capture gas vapors that otherwise would evaporate out into the atmosphere. This costs you money and makes it harder to start your van. There is no good reason NOT to add a charcoal canister to a carbureted vehicle that will be a regularly driven vehicle.
