I am in the process of taking out whatever I possibly can to clean out the engine bay of clutter. Right now i'm trying to figure out if it's okay to pull the "football" (vaccum canister), and the charcoal canister. I pulled the football earlier and it's running fine. There is a line that runs to the intake manifold. I noticed that when that line is sucking air, the engine idles high, when it's capped off it idles slower and smoother.
I also have the NP231 with the vaccum front axle. I spaced the shift fork with washers, so I wanted to get rid of the lines running from the t-case to the front axle? Can I just cap these off.
I was just reading my FSM, and I saw that the charcoal canister is there to hold in the fuel vapors while the engine is off. Have any of you got rid of this thing? What did you cap off, or what lines did you change.
I took out the entire HVAC system from under the dash, and my cruise control has never worked. I'm not worried about that stuff not working, I just want my underhood mess free. Hope someone chimes in...
