Fuel line issue

Hey guys,

first post but have been utilizing the forums for some time in aiding with my 1972 step side f100. My issue is prior to swapping the 302 out it had emission lines running from the vapor canistor to the gas tank. Wondering if possible how to plug or remove that line going to the gas tank, all other emission equipment has been removed. Just needed advice as well any issues that may arise as far as smell or tank not getting vented etc.. Thanks in advance fellas

It's my understanding that the f100 does not have a vented gas cap.
So it would build up pressure if you capped off any of the lines going to charcoal canister filter. Unless you vent it under the bed or some place

You will have to get the vented cap and matching filler neck off a non-evaporated emissions truck.
