ok what I did, is remove the whole hard line, It ends at around the firewall, If you want to explore removing the second hard line, do so, i dont know much bout it but I removed the front hard line and kept the rubber hose, ill prolly mount it so it vents to the back, i donno if its bad to let it vent there, I just wont smoke under my car is all.

You're both right, make sure it's vented.

Coming from the man who DEMANDS that everyone he meets that still HAS that canister remove it no sooner than immediately, giving concise directions... I'm almost scared to show you the new car dude
