When i was changing my fuel filter i found a canister thingy ziptied to one of the rear intake manifold brackets with two vacuum lines attached to it from the throttlebody. What is this?
It rattles when u shake it so it must be broken, so i just unplugged it and put a joiner between the lines. Can i do this?

Do you have a fuel vapour canister ?

Certainly looks like a fuel vapour cannister. Is the factory one not up under the front bar? (behind drivers side fog light?)

Looks like the last owner relocated it. Do you still have the plastic liner in the wheel arch's?

i thought the canister was meant to be attached to the fuel tank? this ones attached to the throttle body. Yeah i did have the arch's in i took em out cos they were fucked. He could of had them out cos it had a veilside front on it when i bought the car.
