Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Can I blow it out with the other end connected or do I need to disconnect the other end too?

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

1 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

Here’s a pic of my EVAP canister: http://986forum.com/forums/attachments/performance-technical-chat/16295d1340566482-fuel-pump-fuel-pump-relay-problem-evap-canister.jpg And here’s another pic from Renntech (not mine): Evaporative Canister Question - 986 Series (Boxster, Boxster S) - RennTech.org Forums As you can tell mine has 3 lines coming out of the top vs. only 1. So which line do I blow out w/an air compressor or should I do all 3? What’s the best way to disconnect (they almost look as if you unscrew them)? Can I blow it out with the other end connected or do I need to disconnect the other end too? If so, how would I locate the other end? Also, I’ll need 4 new black rivets & a rivet gun to reattach the wheel liner. Any websites or tips where to go to find those items? Thanks, Dean
