what do you mean by loop back the other end? i have vented the pipe that comes out of the bulkhead into the airfilter and done the same as you on the throttlebody. isnt the one near the airfilter a vent for the fuel tank?

The canister has an in and out pipe on it.

I simply attached the in and out together...

The canister doesn't vent anywhere in this area, infact does it actualy vent at all?
