I have replaced all of the gas tank vent hoses (all 5 for a CA car!!!). I'm trying to get the evap tank back in the well.

Do the large vent hoses go behind or in front of the filler neck? I'm fighting it big-time

Can I eliminate the evap tank on a CA car? The gas tank has 4 hoses coming from it.

Got it. They go behind the filler neck.

Yes, you can eliminate the evap tank. I have built and installed a "manifold" that sits above the tank, that connects all the various tubing.

[edit] anyone want a plastic evap tank? [/edit]
