Route the hoses correctly (see Cable, wire and hose routing section in the Appendix chapter).
For California model, note the following:
To prevent the gasoline from flowing into or out of the canister, hold the separator perpendicular to the ground.
Connect the hoses according to the diagram of the system. Make sure they do not get pinched or kinked.
Route hoses with a minimum of bending so that the air or vapor will not be obstructed.
