Anyone know what this is and where the line goes too [Image: y3uqede7.jpg]

Charcoal canister. Its for emissions and is there to basically absorb any fuel vapours which end up in the manifold


RE: What is this? - sherman306 - 06-07-2014

Ah right so it goes back to the tank?


RE: What is this? - welshpug - 06-07-2014

no, its the solenoid valve for the charcoal canister, as and when the correct conditions occur the ecu opens the solenoid and vapours are sucked into the engine from the canister, which collects vapours from the fuel tank.
