Hello!
So I am in the process of a 2jz swap and have just removed the stock engine. I have been cleaning up the engine bay and had no idea what to do with the vent hose from the fuel tank. Currently, I have it cut at the firewall. I did a lot of searching and it looks like there is a forum post where the OP explains that you need to remove the check valve because there is no longer a vacuum on the check valve and therefore it wouldn't work properly. Other people say that it is fine to leave the check valve and that it works just fine without being connected to the charcoal canister.

Any insight to this issue would be appreciated!

Thanks!
