CARB Engine Conversion, calling Vettezuki
 
Help me compile the list of parts I'll need from this donor car before it goes to the junkyard.

Charcoal Canister
Catalyst Sticker
O2 sensor
Catalytic converter
Fuel pump
OBD2 Connector
Will I need anything else since this is a 96, so its OBD2 and also its a different type evap system?

Vettezuki 06-23-2013 02:33 PM

ECU
AIR Pump (if it has one)
Harness

I'll think about it more.

Fuel tank since yours probably doesn't have a pressure sensor in it and the '96 will. You'll also want to keep all the exhaust before the cats. The cats are supposed to be near their original placement in the exhaust.

Fuel tank aint gonna swap over. What does the pressure sensor look like? Im sure I can fit it to the stock tank.

Something like this, got it.

Ron do you know if the tanks are vented differently? Thanks!

In my case I programmed out the error code for the tank pressure sensor. Kept the original C3 tank. The ref was suspicious, but let it slide. He DID make me change the charcoal canister.

Prob cuz he didnt want to stick his head that far up your cars ass looking for the sensor. Ha

I remember him looking at the cap and tank inlet in wonderment. He said something like, "I'm not sure why this is working, but the light isn't coming on." I said, "yeah." He was kind of pedantic on several issues, but let that slide. Good, because I would have been fairly f'd he didn't.

I don't remember what mine looked like but I just bought a new tank that had the fitting in it (Eric's tank was too rusted to use). I got my tank from Rock Auto and I had a 20% off discount so I think the total came out to $180.

Which I now realize was kind of pointless. Without the fuel tank pressure sensor working, the intake will never purge your charcoal canister.

So... I couldnt find a fuel tank pressure sensor, and Autozone doesnt list that part.
