Fuel canister

Post by Carl Andersen »

My wife says the car smells like unburned gas. I wasn't in it so I
know it wasn't the burritos I had the night before.

I have an ECU error refering to a fuel canister solenoid or some such
thing.

Sounds like this could cause the problem.......?

Where is it located on the car? I would like to change it myself.

I believe it is in the front passenger side of the vehicle, next to the radiator, that's if I'm thinking of the same thing.....I hope so...:) I'll double check in my manual and let you know if no one else has confirmed or said I'm wrong.

Part is cheap. Replacement for untrained/uninitiated will take approx. 40 minutes depending on:

A. The size of your fingers
B. Manual dexterity

Cannister Purge Solenoide is what you are refferring to I assume. Go get one and then look for it under the passenger side intake manifold.

Josh is almost right. That's the cannister. You want to replace the solenoide me thinks...
