I had a problem that drove my mechanic and me both crazy trying to find out
what was wrong. When I would go around a corner the engine would sputter and
just about die. We finally traced it down to the charcol canister being full
of gas and condensation. I replaced the canister and all is well.

Subject: Carbon Canister??
Has anybody tried to renew the carbon in the canister?? My canister is in
fine shape. I went a bought some activated charcol and replaced the old
stuff. It came out almost as a solid block. When I put everything back to
together, the car ran poorly. I thought it might be several other things
but
when a take off the line that go from the canister to the carbs, the lines
that connect to the carbs next to the air cleaners. Once I removed these
two
lines, the carbs smoothed right out. Could my problem with the carbs be a
result of me trying to renew the carbon in the canister??
Thanks in advance.
