My charcoal canister has been leaking fuel, like puddle in the parking lot, watch me drip.

I have a parts car I plan to pull the old canister off to try my luck. But before I do, I want to make sure I'm not dumping fuel like the Exxon Valdez.

Here is a pic of my canister. I have two lines that run to the carburetor, a vacuum line, and the red line I believe runs to the tank for fumes. From reading, I am supposed to leave the red line from the tank open and cap the vacuum line. What about the two lines running to the carb? What do I do with them?

Check the inside of the engine bay for a vacuum diagram. I remember that a number of cars used to have those, possibly including early CRXes? Though that's a guess as I've never owned a 1st-gen CRX.

Are you filling the tank all the way to the brim?

I'd just replace all that stuff. All that old rubber is a time bomb.
