Re: LS Swapping your Blazer? Here's how I did an OEM level fuel tank

That way I would hopefully have less issues filling the tank.

As I said this line runs to the Evap cannisters, from there it is controlled by the ecm to purge into the engine. It also has a fresh air vent on there with a vent control solenoid. Basically all this is to keep the truck from smelling up my garage with gas fumes! Nothing I hate more than a truck that stinks up your garage. I always find it funny when people rip this stuff out, not even knowing what it's function is.



Also, here is a picture of my Evap canister mounted under the driver's side of the truck.

Phillip... do you have the part number for the 90° fitting

What about hose? Nylon? What size?

I’m using Gates Barricade hose on everything. 5/8 for large evap and 3/8 for fuel feed. 1/4” hardline (aluminum) for the evap purge line to the engine.
