I was confronted with the same proble. I removed my canister on my 73.5 T and after filling up the tank with gas, the passenger
compartment smelled like someone poured gas in it!!!!!!!!!! Awful.

It is still connected but I did remove and plug the opening on the fan housing and the air box in which both lines from the cannister connect. I cut the lines (they more or less deteriorated) as they came through the fire wall, but did not cap so ventilation takes care of any stray fumes. This has been for the last 9 months and I encounter no problems or strong odors. I would leave the cannister alone in the trunk.................with the lines attached. Its not that bulky to be that much of a burden in the trunk.
