Charcoal Canister/Surge tank setup questions
Still thinking about the best way to install a surge tank in my 2002 Bugeye and was looking at the fuel system:
As I'm running Syvecs and have removed the Purge control solenoid valve and blocked the evap metal pipe at engine bay end, can I just remove the Charcoal canister and block the fuel cut valves (I'd probably just link the two to close the system) or will this prevent the rollover switch from operating (Does Syvecs retain this feature) and mean the engine runs on if the car was to roll?
Also does anybody have an image to show which are the fuel feed from 'lift' pump and fuel return hoses for when I start to plumb up the system - and did you feed a new live all the way from the battery for the relay or is there a closer location?

the rollover valve is not a electrical device, it just stops fuel flowing through the purge line in the event of a roll.
you can bin the entire purge/evap system if you want, its only there to meet evaporative emissions regs.
