Really, relocating isn't expensive or difficult. I think it cost me $20 worth of parts (5/8" fuel rated hose, hose clamps, 4 new stainless bolts) and 45 minutes.

As for this being a rare problem.. not so... not something that WILL happen to you, but it is probable.

BTW...I live in Michigan and we do not have strict emissions laws like many other states. Just curious if I need to be in a hurry to get it repaired.
Eventually you will start throwing engine codes, dash lights, etc. and honestly I think your computer might put the vehicle in limp mode. I really don't think you can run without it for long.

I think most people buy a premade kit and tuck it higher. If your able to fab there's no reason you can't do it yourself. The main issue is not messing up and of the hoses, etc. while relocating it.

Remember, just because it happened to you does not mean that it’s not a rare occurrence...LoL!! In all of my years wheeling none of the guys I know have experienced this and I've never seen this occur. We all agree it’s possible, however being possible does not mean it’s not rare.

Out of all the jeep owners out there how many are actually reporting this? It appears to be a very small percentage; therefore it’s labeled a rare occurrence.

yes they do. I ran a benchmark skid on my 2010. when I traded it in for my 2013 I order a poison spider skid. Recently slid under the jeep to install it and was surprised.

Hello - I broke my Evap on the trail a week ago. Don't even think I hit anything, just the pressure of the mud that bent hoses upwards and broke plastic connections to canister. Plan on getting it fixed in the next week or two.

Is they anything I need to worry about until I get it fixed? I got the P0400 light but everything else seems fine.
