Anyone know what this thing is, or how to know if it is adjusted properly?

And so, somewhere in eastern PA, sarcasm died a quiet, and lonely death.

Some sort of vacuum regulator for the vapor cannister. I have no idea how it is adjusted and don't recall anything about it in the factory manual but never specifically looked. I would be curious myself and this question comes up alot with no good answer other than "leave it alone".

Wild Man, you were quietly shot down. Back up some from what you are taking the picture of. No one can tell what we are looking at as you took too close a picture of the object and nothing else around it.
Cheers, Larry |
