Gti6 Vapour Canister

i think that is what its called its the pipe that runs from the rocker cover to inlet throttle body

 

dose it need the canister in the pipe or can i run a straight bit of pipe mine was missing when i got the engine

 

also dose the idle control valve need to be connected to the inlet pipe as when i rev the car it takes a few seconds to return to idle am i right in thinking this is because that pipe of the icv is not connected to the inlet

no, that's just a breather with a PCV valve, no rockers here btw

its a valve not a canister, I'd be inclined to fit one.

no, can be on its own filter.

What is the common way to connect the pipe from the valve to the inlet? (obviously i wont be running the standard air intake pipes)

yes i know there is no rockers hiding under there just couldnt think what to call them lol i suppose there just cam covers

 

what is the valves actual name (so i can get one)

 

if the icv can be on its own filter what could be causing the revs to hold a few seconds befor returning to idle

 

 

am i also right in thinking the smaller pipe under the large pipe on the inlet is not needed when the engine is fitted into a 205

if not running the standard elbow, I have only ever seen small filters added onto them.

 

idle issue is unrelated to what filter you have, either a sticky valve or some sensor issue.

 

the small pipe on the front that goes across to the right hand side is for the chargcoal canister, in a 205 you need to just blank this off.

 

 

the valve in the breather is a PCV valve, just get on the lookout for someone pulling an engine apart or fitting bodies.

When I pull the charcoal cannister off, do I just chuck it away after blanking up the hole? Or do I leave the unit plugged in? (read somewhere about it upsetting the ECU if not plugged in?)

[welshpug 1,626]

I guess you mean the little solenoid valve, the ecu will log a fault but I don't think it affects the running at all, you could fit a resistor inline if you want. blank off indeed.

is this correct
