Jeez. My truck is 5 years younger and nearly as many miles.. That thing is still new!

 

Mine is a '11 and I feel bad because it just hit 60k over the weekend.

 

wow I was wondering where the hell that thing was. Def miss the double cab

 

trade him lol

 

I would never own a 2wd again lol

 

Trade ya

 

No. Keep that truck! It's freaking great. Better then any 2nd gen imo.

 

Guys with fuel cells, are you ditching the charcoal canister? Mine is hooked up to one out of three lines now so I'm thinking about trashing it instead of relocating it. Maybe running the vent off the cell to the line that's hooked up to the canister. Thoughts?

 

Will the cel (check engine light) your truck is gonna throw put the engine in limp mode?

 

I'm pretty sure that the last line hooked up is coming off the vsv so I'm not sure if running the cell's vent line to that is a good idea

 

No it's been running good, cel comes and goes obviously throwing leak in the evap code lol

 

2nd Gen? Never heard of her.

 

All mine is hooked up factory. No CEL.

 

I was running mine for the first year or so but when the factory assembly finally gave out I ditched it. Obviously throws a CEL now but with it in I was having a weird shuttering issue where it seemed like fuel delivery was interrupted every now and then. I think this is probably more of a factory fuel pump issue but since the swap I have had zero issues and just ran a normal vent line. The new system we cam up with is bad ass, dual independent Walbro 255s on a toggle switch, through an Aeromotive external canister filter. We did Fuel Safe Foam at the same time and it made a noticeable difference when the tank is below 50% in fuel slosh.

 

Just curios what are you doing for emissions now?

How often is your cel popping up? Maybe once a week after you clear it. One of the hoses on my s/c is cracking so I get one once a week or so.

My truck would never pass smog on the visual, but I just cleared my codes, drove the truck for 150 or so miles so all the monitors except the evap would come in as "ready". If you keep the fuel level below 1/4 tank the truck won't run the evap test. I did that for a week and took it to smog. No issue passing in California.
