I would get another charcoal canister from a junker or junk yard ....You will still smell fumes with a vented cap ,get fuel slosh,plus ,if it is a full system ,the engine will clear the canister when running,resulting in better gas mileage ,albeit a slim amount,plus it will not be a stinker............
