whoa,the cannister is in the front passenger fender,or not,someone may have already removed it and left an open tube which can leak gas...but with your lousy milage it sounds like your co2 sensors are toast or your oil is like sludge or you have a gas tank leak.

Haynes manual says if your EECS isnt working correctly it can result in poor driveability and poor gas mileage
