Is there any easy way to replace the vacuum line that runs from the evap purge valve to the evap canister?
It snakes through the pass inner fender, I don't want to remove the fender

If you're talking about the line that goes into the charcoal canister inside the passenger fender, I think (been about 4 years) I took my wheel off and I just undid the screws holding the inner fender in place and moved it out of the way a little. It probably would've been easier to just take the whole thing out, but I was being stubborn. I fed the new line through the hole, and I used hairspray on the tip going on the canister (old bike grip trick) to get it to slide on the tip easier and then it becomes tacky once it drys. It took me a while because you can't get a great angle to push from in there and its a stretch to reach your arm up in there with the inner fender still attached, but I got it. I haven't had any issues since so it must be working. I'm sure there's a hundred better ways to do it, but that's how I got it done without having to take my fender off.
