Vacuum Surge Tank mug shot? 77 CA FJ40 (1 Viewer)

[malibugrif]

I'm slowly restoring a '77 FJ40 CA spec back to original. As I work on the vacuum lines, I see not one, but two vacuum surge tanks shown on the parts diagram. I've located the square metal tank with one port, shown as #25719 "Tank" on the lower left of the diagram. What I cannot seem to find is the cylindrical part #25719 "tank" on the right side of the diagram. It appears that there were two surge tanks, with identical part numbers, used in my year. Can any one point me to a photo of the cylindrical tank shown in the lower right? I believe this same tank was used on early builds as I do see this listed on pre '77 models. Also, where is the tank located in your truck? (Driver's side fender area?)

Thank you 40 brethern!

Is it possible that the round canister is the fuel vapor canister?

This is just a guess. It could be a vacuum storage tank. If so, something like this might do the job:

I believe 25719 is a small white tank on the drivers side. This is a photo from my Ca 77

Corcel, you nailed it! Thank you so much for that picture, yep, that's the tank I'm looking for and now I know what I'm trying to find!

Thank you so much for the pic, it's perfect.

Awesome City Racer. If I can't locate an OEM tank, I'll take up your suggestion.

Love your store!

I think that Corcel, below, nailed it. It's a separate tank on the driver's side fender.
