Title: Getting the bottom out of that vapor canister! URG!
Post by: ChevySepticGuy on December 22, 2006, 11:49:00 AM

Hey guys,

Do some of those fuel vapor canisters not come apart? Mine seems like it's sealed tight. I wanted to change the filter in it.





Happy Holidays!

I thought it was recommended that you change the filters in them...?

When I still had my evap. canister, I could just twist the bottom of it and pull out the filter. If you can't get the filter out, I would worry much about it. It's not the most important filter you have to replace.
