Where can I get a canister?
I am sure i can pick one up used, but will it be any good?
Is there any way to tel if its any good or not?

As far as the fuel hose routing to/from the vapor tank, I might be able to figure some of it out, but Its good to get an idea of what people do in this case, with pics.

I have  a partial map of where the vapor lines go, but one is missing.
Call out for the reference car.... :bigsmile:

Thanks!

BINGO!

1973 and up vapor separator.
Thats the ghost of teardown past! I remember it well. I thought - Gee, this thing is probably trashed, no way its gonna be good, especial for sitting for so long with nasty fuel in it. :eek4:
I thought i saved  it, put it in  a bag, and slowly over time, I may have forgotton where I put the bag, and  I must have tossed it :-[.

If the other one will work, Ill buy it.

nice to know someone got a pic of the correct one though...

As far as I know, there's no aftermarket replacement. You'll probably have to go fleebay, a junkyard or one of us. I always cut the hoses and left the things on the cars back when they were "dime-a-dozen" and parted them, so I'm not much help to your cause.

Anybody else?

Wages, how about that guy near you with the piles of Mopar parts?
