thanks man, i try my best but sometimes the shipping company hates me.

Yeah I found a hidden junkyard with a few Fj80's he asked for 150 but Im gonna shoot 100 and if it doesnt work out then Ill hit you up! Thank you, what else parts do you have btw
 
DO both. Replace the Charcoal canister and replace the tank with a non-cracked or a repaired tank.

Go to the "Parting Out" section in the classiifeds and find someone local to you.

I drove on my cracked tank for over a year.

Don't fill it more than 3/4 full

Always park it nose-up (you can even pull the front wheels up on the curb)

Don't smoke while driving or around it at all.

Search out the thread referenced, as it gives a lot of detail and information about each of us and the work we have done.

When you replace the tank, purchase new hoses to replace all. Buy the filler neck hoses from Toyota, as the straight hose from local auto parts will kink.

I did mine in my driveway in about 4 hours of actual work. However, I painted my new tank with POR-15, and replaced all the gaskets on the new tank (fuel pump and inlet nozzle gaskets and all hoses, I also did my canister first to remove the pressurization.

Thank you this is a good little check list Ill be sure to fulfill after finals
 
Our do what I did and do what land cruiser Phil did cut oem canister and fill out check ball and plug new charcoal in less than 20.00 bucks to do the mod. It works as it should to capture vapors. My .02

How would I do this? and would I pass smog?
 
Salty I live in the sticks in north Georgia we ain't got no smog crap here I really couldn't say if it will or won't pass emissions but when you put the plastic cap back on and you are careful with your cuts on the canister, you can't tell you did the mod at all visually

Crap crap crap! Genius! Yepped, filled the tank full and smells like crazy. Parked it for a week with just a quarter tank no smell! Didn't even think of that. To the salvage yard I go!
