Charcoal Canister

The charcoal canister on my car has been discontinued by GM. I need to
know were I can get a new one. The GM part number on mine is 17075855-HH. I'd sure appreciate the Info.

Re: Charcoal Canister

Are you trying to pass an emissions test or are you doing a historic restore? Cause honestly most people on this site actually get rid of the canister and properly block off the necessary hoses. It makes the engine bay look cleaner and also is not needed to operate the motor correctly(as long as you get rid of it the right way)

Re: Charcoal Canister

Okay I want to restore mine but the canister has been a hold up. I'm not restoring mine for historical reasons, I'm restoring mine to make me happy how I want it. How do I properly bypass the canister, and whats it going to do to my fuel milage?
