Just wondering if any of you guys out there would be able to post up pics of your engine bays?

I have a really strange thing in the back passenger side of my bay, and I was just wondering if anyone else has it too....

Thanks guys.

Charcoal cannister? Part of the emmission system.

wiper motor? i know i had nfi what it was before

It's like the oil catch can, but about 3 times the size. It's not hooked up to anything though....Held on with cable ties

Sounds like a charcoal canister to me

If its that thing with the red circle around it thats the charcol canister.

That's where it is.....

Doesn't really look like that though. It's bigger, with only 1 tube coming out the top. It's also got an inline fuel filter attached to the top. It's connected at the bottom to what looks like a fuel line.....Steel pipe that runs down under the firewall with the fuel lines....Haven't gotten underneath to see where it goes.

I'll try to get some pics so I can show you what I mean....It's a hard thing to explain.

I have two of them. Mine have vac check valves on them. One of mine is used for my cruise control and is above the steering, the other (location similar to pic) I have no idea what its for. I figured it was just to prevent sudden changes in vac or something. They have two pipes each and both of mine have vac check valves to allow flow in only one direction.

could be the rear anti locking modulator

I've got one of those too, rear wheel ABS. That thing is huge, and once again same location as in that picture.

Does it look like that gold canister at the back there?

Yeah....Looks like that one rice thief...

Thats just the charcoal cansister, just emission stuff so wont damage ur car, but will damage ur wallet if u get pulled over by dot

Where's it meant to be connected to? I've had the car for 3 years and I haven't ever had it hooked up.
