I replaced my charcoal canister last October, but recently got the dreaded series of codes that signify a bad canister. The dealer who replaced it originally looked at it since there’s a 12 month unlimited mileage warranty, but when they pulled the hoses muddy water came out. The canister is toast and at this point I’m going to swap it with a used one off a wrecked vehicle, but I’m also pondering ways to ensure the filter element on it is located higher up to avoid this fate in the future. (BTW I’m surprised about the canister pulling in water but given some of the deep and fast moving crossings I did in April I’m not entirely shocked about the cause).
Has anyone relocated their canister filter to somewhere higher up? Anyone have ideas of a higher location that’s safe for the possible venting of fuel vapors? I know the LRA tanks make a breather loop with a K&N filter up near the fuel filler but I’m wondering how much that would’ve helped. (@TeCKis300 how’s your setup holding up?)
Also I’m wondering if anyone else who was on my Cruise Moab pre-run has had any issues? (@nakman have you heard of anyone else especially with a 200 having this fate?)
