A week or two ago I posted a picture of my vapor cannister. I knew it had to be replaced because there was a hole in the top where the vapor line connection to the carb used to be. So yesterday I crawled under the coach and attempted to loosen the clamp holding the cannister in. Unfortunately, it was so rusted and I was in an uncomfortable position that I was not making any headway. So I decided to remove the wheel well liner to allow me to access things from above. Imagine my surprise when I saw this:

Yep, unless I am mistaken, that is another vapor cannister ready to go. It was dusty, but appears to never have had hoses connected to it. I am wondering if a PO had it installed, but the installer forgot to run the hoses.

Looks like I can return the one I bought from JimK!
