I hear that >evapoative emmissions were a large part of the emmissions from cars whci >vent fuel tanks directly to the atmosphere. > Both of my cars have this but in different places. The Sqback has it under the engine deck lid on the left side and the Fastback has it under the rear passenger compartment mounted above the transmission. I believe both are attached with a strap around the canister that then bolts to the car. Similar to the coil attachment arangement. I would think that you would be able to get the strap with any used canister. Hope this helps. ------------------------------------- Craig Woolston '70 Sqback and '71 Fastback cwoolsto@ladc.lockheed.com
