Carbon Can?

[Erich Stahler]

The fuel lines on my 96 4.2 Cerb run in and out of this can thing which is located behind the passenger side rear wheel, can anyone tell me what the purpose of this can is and is it pressurised if I remove one of the hoses?

It just catches fuel vapour.

Not pressurised.

So presumably its on the return side of the fuel circuit as its plumbed into the top of the tank?

Nope, it's on the vapour lines from the 4 way splitter that links the throttle bodies.

There "shouldn't" be any neat fuel in there although it can sometimes get in.
