I would not do that. Those little ports should go to the plastic vapor thingy that lives in the DS rear fender well area. People have tried to get by without that, with poor results. Plump it as original and you'll have better luck.

This thread sucks as a resource.
Found pics.
Pighead,
Does the carb have any implications on fully reinstalling the OE vapor recovery crap?
I had it in my head that only a few lines were necessary, but can't find the detail page for either the '76 or a 3F to compare the two.
Not really. You may or may not have a fuel return line from the carb or fuel pump, that line goes to the front PS side of the gastank.
I like my hoses better...
Please forgive the hijack, but what about the " vapor box " on the pass. side, that's connected to this one. Is that important to have hooked up.
Mine is totally not stock and trying to figure out what's all needed.

Maybe. I have no first-hand experience with early vapor recovery boxes, except knowing that the early ones were very big and bulky. I'm thinking that if you had a later model, as pictured above, you could replace your two-piece one. Figuring out which hose goes where would be your other problem.
Pure and uncut is always mo betta.
An imbecilic confirmation while I continue to hunt for the digitized file.
The EVAP system operates independent of the EGR, correct?
Edited: By the way, I've missed you in a not ghey way.

WTF, WTF, WTF!!!!
WOW WOW
Every village needs an idiot....
Figured out what I was thinking, but now see the error in the train of thought.
Guessing a charcoal canister, fuel vapor separator, and tubing will be needed based on the assumption the PO capped all because of either a crack, blockage, or other leak.
Bypassing sounded good, but see the relative importance.

check the canister(rear quarter) for leaks(low pressure regulated air and soapy water) the thing is just some plastic envelopes with ports to join together to let fuel condense and drain back to tank. EVAP is a must. Charcoal canister is a must. these things are your friends. EGR separate and alone- not needed but for emissions passage. I have seem coolerman?s or maybe BSevans custom fuel vapor separator...aluminum tube welded closed with 4 ports on bottom and one on top(for the check valve that lets vapor to charcoal can or intake depending on engine state); looks real clean and works from what I understand and doesn't have a chance to crack like the plastic thingamabob....EVAP is your friend...

an fj60 should have all the stuff you need to go from the early to the newer EVAP set-up. early had like 3 condensers??? one on each side and a bigin down under. the principal is the same in either event. must have a little bit of back pressure on the system(check valve) in order to help condense the vapor fuel. must have a canister capable of holding said pressures and be impervious to gasoline. should have several chambers to split the condensing into smaller groups to increase overall efficiency, or condensing fins(much like the stack of a stil). your tank prolly has X number of ports. 1 is supply, 1 is return, a big filler, and air vent and 4(or is it 5) lines for the evap. any condenser with correct number of ports will work here providing a pressurized system and a decent charcoal canister(which are also not necessary to be of the factory type to function well) HTH...

Unless you want to be nauseous from fuel vapors every time you drive your Pig, do not delete the evap system (includes charcoal canister).
Until they're NLA...... Going to repack the 80s can since there's not an elegant solution to replace.
Thanks for the offer.
May be a good time to consider a more readily available alternative, considering the state it's in and that other items will be moving on the inner fenders, anyway.

repacking the 80 series canister is a superior solution...what the problem is with that?...I mean what is the problem with that? I would call that rebuilt, wouldn't you. I was gunna suggest a trip to a late model junk yard...it is a can with some perferations and some cabon stuffed inside...you could fab one up from alloy tubing or even some PVC pipe and some caps and coupling, some glue and some screen, and some fish tank carbon. I have an early can for a 55, not sure if it could be dissected and repacked, but dont see why not...you want it and it's yours...their only purpose is to condition the smell when you get down to it(alright, maybe trap some of the vapors that get thru, but c'mon, even the AIR injection in pre CAT years only thins out the tailpipe emissions...)do you want to smell like a gas jockey?
I cant keep up, but this is the one that's getting the hotrodded two3F drive right? stuff whatever does this job the best under the bonnet and call it a day> repack that 80 series can; prollem soveld
