charcoal canister piping

stocky · #1 03-09-2008, 08:33 PM

can someone with a VR explain how the charcoal canisters are mounted? im having trouble fitting mine in the standard location, due to twin thermos installed.

from what i can see. there are 3 hoses. one goes to the fuel tank, two go to the throttle body. is this right? i thought there was a 4th one that also went to the fuel tank.

also, has any ever moved theres somewhere else? id like to see pictures of a moved one

i think you're right they're stocky so far i think there is only 3 it is probably better to leave it where it is for it to be elsewhere would be nice. then you have the battle of the know it all police man straight out of hair dressing school to contend with and main roads man to contend with

problem is its not in there at the moment. i have a vp v6 one here that im trying to install and it doesnt seem to fit in the standard spot. so whats the thing on the bottom of the canister? looks like another hose goes there, with 3 on top?
