Couple vac line routing questions, if you please.

Searching provided nothing conclusive; for the keywords I chose anyway.

Im tired of disconnecting vac lines from my UIM when I pull it off to do any work on my car, and was curious if I could use one of the LIM/block vac ports for my FPR? Do those nipples see the same vacuum as the UIM? I vaguely remember reading somewhere that someone did that to no ill-effect.

Also, I am at a loss as to what I should do with my charcoal canister line. I dont want it going to the UIM, but dont know where else to rout it.

Relevant mods are:

Full non-sequential, PFC

Thanks!

You should be fine relocating those to the LIM. The only thing to watch is moving from ahead to behind the throttle plates, so you're fine.

That was my assumption...but we all know how those can turn out.

And venting the charcoal canister is going to be ok? Are the fumes that come out, such as they are, flammable in any way? Ok to vent in engine compartment, or should I discon at source?

Thanks for replies!
