Radiator cap could be faulty too. This is another common issue on the VE SS.

Yeah have since seen a few clips on YouTube, I'll put it on tomorrow.

Found a location for it as ideally below the rocker cover right?

And spent over an hour watching and none the wiser. Fit it in 15 mins helps not when you've spent more time on YouTube lol

Now I don't just go in and out with the can here do I?

I believe so, but I’m not sure which is ‘in and which is ‘out’, but others will know.

Do you have any pictures of how the can itself mounts to the engine? I’d be interested to see how it physically mounts.

Yeah I have it all apart. I've spent more time looking on the Web and YouTube but can't find definitive answers anywhere... :(

"In" connection comes from the valley plate connection, "Out" goes to the throttle body.
