Hi,

Just wondering if anyone has a diagram of the charcoal canister and associated tubing on a Stelvio.

Here is what I have done so far but I don't know if I am doing this correctly to rid my bike of this extraneous junk:

-Removed charcoal canister
-Plugged the 5/16" inch line connected to left side of canister
-Connected together the two 1/4" lines (one on each side of the canister)
-Removed the grey/black plastic valve connected to the 1/4" fuel line located next to the right side throttle body and replaced it with a straight thru brass fitting

I am just not sure if this is appropriate or need I do something more/different.

Thank you for any input.

You have to disconnect and plug the two lines going to the throttle bodies (the one's that connect where you attach the carb tool to synch the TB's). If you did that, it sounds o.k. (you could remove some of the plumbing but I don't think you don't have to).

Thanks Ben! Then just reconnect them when synching/balancing the throttle bodies?

Or disconnect plug the existing lines going to the throttle bodies and just run another line straight across to attach the two throttle bodies ?
 
You could disconnect and plug them or run a light straight across (I did the latter). And then, when you sync the tb's, you would disconnect the plug or the line, and attach the vacum tool to each TB.

I was just looking at Pete's diagram and thinking you should also make sure you don't plug the line from the gas tank. You could plug the line to the TB's, or just rip all that tubing out. But I think you essentially want to convert the line from the gas tank to the evap can to a vent line, so the tank will vent better.

Right?
 
Based on Pete's diagram, I have done the following:

Removed Canister #4
Removed Valve #7 and replaced it with a brass straight thru connector valve
Connected #6 on each side of the canister with a brass straight thru connector
Plugged #8 where it was connected to the canister


Next what I plan to to is plug #8 where it connects to each throttle body.
Then I will run a new line from one throttle body straight across to the other.
 
That sounds right. I have mine disconnected, but left the plumbing in. But I think I'm going to do what you did and remove the can too....
