Okay, so that now leads us down a different path. Thanks for the info. The different path is: Is the canister good for the life of the car? Or, can we replace parts of the canister or the charcoal inside? I haven't touched mine, but, I would be interested to know if this needs to be fixed up after the car has been sitting for 15 years.

Hi Ryan, I don't know if you can remove it or not. But, I've seen EFI engines at the Motorsport show that have removed this canister. I have the same question... if you do remove it, where do you put the hoses?

Hey grantman... how are things going now? I thought maybe I'd follow up a few months later. [m]

Where can I get reinforced rubber hose for the fuel lines like this? Should the local auto parts store have it? I would imagine some kind of braided (internal) hose is best. You're right, the hose connecting the fuel rails together was bulging and weak.
