All you need is a vacuum line and an evap purge valve coming off the intake manifold. If you don't have an open port, you could try T'ing into a vacuum line off of the intake manifold.

If it is the canister or the evap purge valve you're looking for, you should be able to get them cheap at a junk yard.

Or here's some on ebay: http://shop.ebay.com/i.html?_nkw=charco ... m270.l1313

I am pretty sure that the charcoal canisters have a limited lifespan. Something like 10 years? (I bet Suspendedhatch knows this) I never heard of one malfunctioning or going bad though.

The evap purge valve is gong to be a little more work to find, but I did a quick search:

Junkyard would be your best bet for that sensor.

- Tue Sep 14, 2010 6:48 pm #213664 what would be the problem of you did not connect that? From my understanding it traps fuel vapors, so if you do not connect, you'll be loosing fuel economy?
