I have an '85 FJ60 with desmogged 2F. I believe my charcoal canister is causing problems. I will test it per the FSM. A search for charcoal canister pulls up several screens of good info. I'm trying to understand what inputs and outputs (vacuum and gasoline vapor?) flows in what direction thru the thing. Meaning what goes into the canister where and what comes out and where. I have not found this info.
Also there is and electrical gadget of some sort at the top of the canister
If anyone can give me a rundown of the plumbing on this thing and the function of the electrical gadget I'd greatly appreciate it.
I assume the "purge pipe" is manifold vacuum and the "tank pipe" is for gasoline vapor from the fuel tank but do not know for sure.
My canister looks like the diagram below: three pipes on top and one on the bottom. The two small ones on top are labeled "purge pipe" and "tank pipe". The large top pipe is not labeled. The bottom pipe is not labeled.
Thanks
Jim
