#92162, "Fuel Evap Canister Removed - Options Please"

My 95 RS I bought like 2 years ago got in an accident about 3 months ago, just so happened it was during an insurance coverage lap so I had to fix it my self. None the less I was lucky I only had to replace the front bumper the pass side headlight - also damaged but I did not replace was for money reasons at the time, AC setup so I removed it, Power steering setup so I removed it, and the Fuel Evap Canister setup so I removed it.

Ok now the pros and cons, the power I gained from losing the AC and power steering is like striking gold. BUT!! It’s hot as hell right now and that make it suck to not have AC but at least our windows flow air good. Plus not having power steering anymore does suck for U-Turning and parking but other then that it’s a small loss. Now to the fun part. The Fuel Evap Canister once I remove it I obviously took out the check valve and everything just leaving the two hard lines exposed. Now once I started the car I had a hissing noise coming from the right hard line I traced it back and found it go to the VAC connection on the top of the throttle body so I disconnect it and caped the throttle body VAC line. My idle is so much better now that I caped that VAC line but should I cap the other line the was going into the Fuel Evap Canister from the hard line that leads to the fuel pump I am guessing that’s where the Vapor comes from in the Fuel Evap Canister??

Thanks in advance
