I recently purchased a used '05 GT Premium (2342 mi).

Located in the intake track is a "so-called" "hydrocarbon trap" ..........all news to me.

I installed a K&N FIPK, the instructions warned me not to omit a so-called "hydrocarbon trap". What Up!

I'm would like to remove this intake obstruction.

For those of you, who did this, any negative reluts

Remove it, Ford did mid model year for the '05s it isn't going to hurt anything. As a word of advice for the future, the search function is your friend.

Thanks,

I did a search for "hydrocarbon filter"/"hydrocarbon trap" and found no information relative to problems, if any on removal. Perhaps I missed it somehow.

Anyway, thnaks, for the input and I will remove mine this PM.

I have a 2006 Mustang GT but I didn't see any Hydrocarbon trap??? Someone help me. I looked for it but couldn't find it.

...Like Shortbus JUST POSTED, Ford stopped putting them in the Mustangs midway through 2005. Only the early-production 2005s have it.
