How to delete EVAP system without SES light

I live where emissions are not tested, and I have already gotten rid of everything but the EVAP system. I think mine is going bad anyway, because I get a fuel smell when I'm idling, and its coming from my pass. fender. Anyway, If I delete the EVAP system, how do I keep from setting a SES light on my '95 OBDI? Can I just put a resistor somewhere? Also, what to do with the hose coming from the gas tank?

This isnt the answer to the question.....but I would check the fuel regulator vacume line for fuel if you smell fuel at idle.....if it has any fuel in it the regulator is toast.

Where are the vapors going to go if you remove all the EVAP stuff?

Good question Rob .

If it smells bad now, and you think the EEC canister system is not working, what do you think it will smell like without the system?

I still have the EEC system on my 800HP nitrous stroker... when it wasn't working, I had tears in my eyes from the fumes from the C16......... Got the system working again, and all the stink went away.

I know there's people that have done this before. I'm not sure about how to vent the tank after removing the charcoal canister, but I was thinking maybe a vented gas cap, or else I'd figure something out. I just want less clutter in the car and the engine bay, and the fuel smell doesn't bother me. I'm used to 60s cars and they always smell like fuel.
