I rebuilt the cannister on my Spitfire using charcoal for fish filters,
and round PVC filter material (the same diameter as the cannister) that I
found at the local auto parts store.
ISTR the early ones were made to be reuilt the later ones are sealed. i
knocked the bottom off with a hammer, then used silicone to seal it bak
up.
