I'm guessing it's headlight washer fluid container.... except there are no washers... ?????

 

Yea, Headlight fluid....lol, Now if i can only find some elbow grease....lol

j/j, i really don't know.....

 

Heh! You just go nuts with the elbow grease! No but this is the type of wierd modifications that sometimes have to done on these cars when brought in to my country. I've seen another bird with the same bag except it was in a different places and this one HAD washers.... go figure

 

i remember seeing that the other day, i think its the radiator fluid overflow tank..., then theres a hose going strait to the ground to pour out if it overflows too much... i think thats what it is...

 

The overflow tank is the white square-like container in the background.

What does the cap say? It looks like there are some markings... or is that just the photo?

What color is the fluid inside (if any)?

 

the black thing is what this topic is about right?

... what bag?????

 

I'm curious too. I'll be watching this one....

 

It looks like the fuel vapor canister to me. Dont see any blue bag.

 

this bag. no idea what it is either

 

is that a backwards engine compartment, because that looks like the windshield washer reservoir behind it, but mine is on the drivers side... that looks like the passenger side... but not so sure about that bag... maybe a replacement washer fluid reservoir, i know older cars used bags, not plastic tubs... just a thought?

 

That is the overflow tank for the radiator behind the bag, those were huge on the Firebirds and the battery mounted on the driverside where on the Camaro's the battery was on the passenger.

 

well then... that makes sense.. lol... i feel kidna stupid now.. lol

 

Looks backwards to me. My fuel vapor canister in my firebird is on the driver side along with the winshield washer resevior, my battery and overflow tank on the passenger side.

My sugestion is to pull the bag out of the fender and follow any hoses coming out of it. If there aren't any then junk the bag. It serves no purpose. Do you have a coolant overflow tank? That looks like the overflow tank in the picture but I don't see the pressure release/cap thingy.

 

Its a difference in model year layouts. My 1990 has the canister on the passenger side, battery on driver side:



Its there, just looks like he has the cap off.

 

Here's a wider pic of the enginebay to end confusions. The expansion container is the big white thing on the passengerside so that's not it. There is absolutely no markings on the cap to the bag. So I really have no clue....

 

its weird mine has a safeway bag in mine.....

 

Looks like it was just shoved in there.Maybe it had something in it that was used to refill something that leaked?

 

Never seen or heard of one before. I say it was added....

 

It's a bag of the 'blue racing fuel'... go to town !!

 

I can't believe no one has said it's the ever elusive, mystery blinker fluid resevoir yet

Instead of guessing, can you not just take the cap off or stick a wood dowel down in it (like a dipstick) to see what is/was in this mystery vessel ? Or, take it out and do the same?
These cars didn't come with a headlamp washer/wiper setup (like a benz) either to answer your original guess.

 

i agree with that... no hoses connecting to anything means its useless

 

Here's a better pic of the bag. just took it. As you can see it's VEEEERY mysterious!

 

THat is where the previous owner stowed his drugs...

I have the blue bag, i guess it was put there when it was imported to Sweden . I also have two headlight washers .
I will show you a picture tomorrow.

 

Jag kan svenska ....but it would be unfair to the other readers to write in swedish I think. But I'll be waiting for your pic.... I knew it was headlightwasherfluid But can't understand why there are no washers on my car.... and there's nothing that points to the front piece having been replaced or anything.....

 

BS the Euros got headlight washes

Done with my useless post
