Leaking carbon/charcoal canister


Guest Neil

Recommended Posts

Hey,

 

I've got a 74 260 that is leaking gas from the bottom of the carbon filter. This is very concerning :shock: That stuff can catch on fire :flamedevil: .

 

I'm not sure if it is connected properly because there are only two lines connected. One is from the tank (vent line) and the other to the carb. From looking in the Haynes manual, there should be at least one more line (vacuum) and possibly another (canister purge). These are not connected.

 

Is this why it's dumping fuel out of the bottom?

 

Also, it doesn't do it all of the time. Usually just at the end of the day (and only at my house). Weird, huh.

 

 

Any input? Thanks
