Carbon canister?

[vince@performancecarstereo.com (Vince Royer)]

It has something to do with storing fuel vapours which are either

1) sucked into the intake or
2) vented outside

which one it is I couldn't figure out. Either way, if it's old, it's
probably not doing much.  That's what I figured anyways. I ditched the whole
setup and it runs a little quieter now.
