I wouldnt remove it, I did, and if your not chipped you will throw a cel for the solenoid.

Plus your mpg may go down. After months of searching for a fix, it was a fact its better to leave it on, for many reasons other than emissions.

There's really nothing to it, i just removed it and connected the vent tube from the tank to the line that exits the bottom of the can (which just vents outside the engine bay), cap off the vac lines (if i remember correctly) and your done.

As long as you're obd1, especially a p28, you're all set.
