Use only a gas cap from the parts department of a Toyota dealership!! Do not use the aftermarket gas caps from your local auto store, those do not work. I tried two of those before getting the OEM replacement and that is what finally reset the CEL.
Very hard work. This is so helpful and much appreciated so that we don't have to waste all that time figuring out things, and very important, don't have to pay a lot of money. Wish you the best!!! Thank you!!!
Thanks for the vid, man! It really helped me replace the charcoal canister on my 98 Corolla. Of course the 3 bolts took time since it was rusty down there. I must say that 01 Corolla’s undercarriage is immaculate.
@@Handy-Mann I had trouble on that one squeeze tab connector and without the screw driver trick, I would have been at it until the crack of drawn. Amazingly it didn’t disintegrate on me. I also replaced some of those hose clamps and threw a whole lotta copper anti seize on the bolts.
Every person who done this complained about the big hose clip. I am wondering if I use a fuel line removal tool that basically does the same job of pushing the clios up, I wonder if that would work. I am going to do this for a 2003 Camry soon. Although the Camry canister is burried worse and need to remove the subframe
I thought the same thing, but learned the hard way there’s not enough room to slide the tool under the cap to push it into the connector. As it turned out, I couldn’t change my canister on my 2002 Camry Solara, because all the clamps were broken from rusting, as were the bolts, and I had to crawl to my mech and pay him to do it. He’s got a lift, hose supplies (oh, a lot of the hoses needed replacing, and they’re all different sizes!), clamp assortment, and can drop the rear sub assembly to get in there. Because yeah, bolts broke and had to be drilled out, and it was a rust shower under that car from the gitgo. Best advice I can give anyone is to wear a full face shield if you’re going under there. I didn’t do that one time, and got rust flecks in my eyes. I was miserable for two days until I got them all flushed out. Safety glasses aren’t enough. Wear the shield!
2 questions please. #1, did you replace the hoses I see in the video and #2 did the canister turn out to be the problem. I have the exact same issue going on
So I did not replace any of the hoses. I ended up throwing the same code shortly after replacing the canister. I finally replaced the gas cap with an oem one from a Toyota dealership. I had previously replaced mine with one from a local auto parts store and that never fixed it. Make sure it's from a Toyota dealership. That reset my code long enough to pass emissions (I couldn't pass until I replaced the gas cap). Then about a month later the same code popped up again. I question if I had caused a hole in the tubing when I replaced this evap canister.
I read that that is a common issue with the Toyotas from this era I wonder if that’s what happen to mine but it’s not displaying any codes just stalling when I get gas
My car isn’t throwing any codes aside P0171 (lean fuel mixture) but every time I get gas it stalls out this only happened after a small accident so I’m assuming the canister is cracked or damaged but it hasn’t popped up in the codes so I don’t know what I should do
The compressor has nothing to do with the vsv evap system.. unless you got a hose routed wrong and its touching the compressor.. otherwise if its clicking than your ac is probabilmy going out.. you could hsve damaged an ac line causing a leak.,
@Z Ack I ended up taking it all apart again and putting it back together after carefully studying a few pictures I could find of the charcoal canister and the clicking has gone away. Haven't had any CELs since I did that. I'm guessing I hooked up a hose incorrectly.

Well it's spent the majority of its life in the desert so that's why I have so little rust on my Corolla

Great video! I plan on doing this when my next smog is due 👌
Thanks!
Thank you so much for this video.

man you did it the hard way wow
They make a pair of pliers for this fuel lines

@@Handy-Manntry leak detection pump 👌🏻
Many times it's the purge valve on the canister and not the canister itself unless it's been contaminated with fuel from overfilling the tank.
I read that that is a common issue with the Toyotas from this era I wonder if that’s what happen to mine but it’s not displaying any codes just stalling when I get gas
@@sal123ps3 No, sounds like a fuel system issue for sure. Start by cleaning the throttle body with throttle body cleaner.
@@rkgsd that would cause it to stall after getting gas and only when getting gas ?
can you do a video on valve canister purge, I bought a new one for my car but I don't know which way the arrow goes. like which hose goes where?
Can this also cause po441?
I fixed P0441 on a 2004 Corolla (next generation than the one in this video) by replacing the purge valve. It's next to the MAF sensor on my car.

puedo mirar estos anuncios o preparación para cambiar un canister en español
What you said roughly translates to “I can look at these ads or preparation to change a canister in Spanish”…. So umm.. ok. Great!
I replaced the VSV and now I hear a clicking noise when the compressor kicks in. Is that normal?
The compressor has nothing to do with the vsv evap system.. unless you got a hose routed wrong and its touching the compressor.. otherwise if its clicking than your ac is probabilmy going out.. you could hsve damaged an ac line causing a leak.,
