Pierburg Carb Vapour Canister Plumbing

Post by syncrodude »

Hi

My Pierburg appears to have the vapour canister by-passed :? , I assume this has been done because of some problem.
What exactly does it do ? Is it worth getting another ? if I do how do you plumb it in correctly ?, I have looked on wiki but not showing which pipes go where.
