This may be a stupid question, but what is the coffee-can looking thing attached on the bottom of my passenger side export brace? I ask because I noticed the rubber "T" in the middle of the hose which comes off the back of it is cracked and hanging by a thread, is this a peice I can get easy?

Thanks.

or charcoal canister maybe? Its nothing critical, but if its just a piece of vacuum hose, you might as well fix it. Vacuum hose is cheap.

Quite often the charcoal canister vents your gas tank, so leave it working.

Your car runs on Starbucks.

I had one on my cougar and I was told that it worked the headlights. But you aren't asking about a cougar, so this response is moot.
