Come to put the charcoal canister back under the wing but I cant see where the large shaped pipe from the bottom of the canister should be routed and to what it attaches to (if anything).

Can someone give me a bit of guidance? Thanks

I've attached what it looked like on my 1997 SPI before I stripped it. You can't see exactly where the end of that pipe ends up but on mine it goes through a small opening in the inner wing so that the end of the pipe is in the engine bay. No idea if that is the correct place but that's where it was and probably where mine will go back :)

That’s perfect thanks.. I will route route same and see where it ends up in the engine bay, believe it’s just a vent so not connected to anything.

Oh, and I now see where the expansion bottle mounts as well, I must take more pics next time, cheers

That’s it;just an open vent one of mine was inside the inner wing, the other was clipped to the outside and cut off at the big square opening.

Yep, refitted it, runs behind the shock, down and out of the rectangular hole in the inner wing panel, right next to the brake pipe union, cheers
