    Wow, A really awesome video. I have never seen this repair or problem on a car before. It's always great to see and learn something new. It seems like the factory would have wrapped that whole assembly in plastic or something to keep the rust out. But like my brother says. They don't want things to last forever, lol. Jim, I hope you have a Blessed Fall So Far.

    Just a tip and I don't know if it works for anything else but in my 2002 Chevy Tracker, if you turn the nozzle upside down, push it all the way in and let it rest against the fuel door, it pumps with no problem!

      Fuel site technician here, don't do that. The nozzle will not function properly/ shutoff properly when it is upside down. It can lead to Fuel getting all over the place and create a fire hazard.

    Multiple videos in replacing parts, but for some it makes sense to know the why certain component is actually failing, I watch this video as many other videos and all just replace the canister but no one said why is bad or what is bad in it. Reading the comments found out that by overfilling the gas tank some of that gas will pass to the canister and then damage the screen that hold the charcoal in it. Is easy to replace parts but some will like to know what actually went wrong. Hope this helps anyone, Thanks to
    "he's the Master
    " your comment makes more sense than watching 100's of videos!

    Thanks. Have a 05 Volvo S60 2.5t found out that the fuel filler neck vent pipe was leaking. Part discontinued through the manufacturer. Garage couldn't find one in my area. So they used epoxy. Picked it up and went to a gas station and can't put gas in my car. Alot of pressure coming out of the fuel filler neck. I know it is a emissions system problem. So I hope that the manufacturer still makes the carbon canister

      @angelocarazas1640 so yes I did. I ended up empting out the Canister and changed the evap as well there was a lot of coal or what ever those pebble things are , once I emptied the box I put everything back together , unfortunately it still kept happening. So I had to pull everything back apart ehat I ended up doing was disconnecting all the thick hoses off from the box and the gas tank and using a vacume to vacum out anything out if them and yea there was still a lot more pebbles on it. Once I did that I put everything back together and i didn't have the issue again.

    Over filling the tank is the worst thing anyone can do. Eventually the gas gets into the EVAP canister may melt away a protective filter screen so the pellets get released
    and then contaminates the whole system or seals up the filter and blocks the retention of vapors by the pellets. Newer cars may have a check engine light that goes on.
    Rest it and it comes back day after day. You will need a new EVAP canister!

      What do you think if my problem is related to EVAP or sending unit? My gas gauge is stuck at 3/4 (it goes to 0 when I turn off the car) and even though I'm using fuel (it should be maybe 1/4), it is still at 3/4 of tank. I can fill it up to max, until it starts clicking, but it is only 5.7 gallons and then the gauge goes to max, but always gets stuck at 3/4). I know for sure I should be able to to fill up more, but I can't put more. My tank is 16.1 gallons. It's BMW 2008. There is fuel smell inside the car. When I drive the car, then it is less noticeable, but once I turn it off and leave it overnight, then the smell is really really bad. Now, when I filled up 5.7 gallons, I tried to fill up more and it was clicking a lot, so maybe that destroyed EVAP system, not sure (well, probably it was destroyed before considering I couldn't put more then 5.7 gallons). After that I started noticing fuel smell.

    Here's what I don't get: people say that the vent valve solenoid is open by default, when no voltage is applied, and it only closes when the computer sends voltage to it. But in that case I don't understand how the vapor canister is able to "trap the fumes" and release them to the engine via the purge valve (which is closed by default and opens only when voltage is applied)? Because as long as the vent valve is open, all fumes will travel through the charcoal filter and out into the atmosphere, meaning that there's no trapping. And to make matters even worse - your fuel gets slowly evaporated that way. Also, many videos have completely opposite explanations which are 100% conflicting, where one guy says the vent valve is a 1-way street for getting air IN the vapor canister, but never OUT, then another guy says the complete polar opposite (only OUT, never IN), then some others say it's a 2-way street for both IN and OUT. I'm completely lost here...

    Thanks man I'm going to have my mechanic help me out to fix mine, I've been overfilling my tank because I drive hundreds of miles everyday. Apparently doing that makes this problem appear faster than normal. Mine used to never have this issue and then it just started doing it last week. I hope this is not expensive to get repaired

    Hi, do you have any idea, why my car fuel leaks from the tank when the tank is full after filling the gas. It leaks significantly until I stop filling the gas. I checked underneath; it is not from the charcoal canister, it’s from the gas tank. My car is nissan x-trail 2005. It is not leaking from filler neck vent though.
    We smell gas for few days after filling gas.

      You can rebuild the old one if you're careful there are UA-cam videos on how to do it basically you're carefully going to cut apart the canister empty out all the old charcoal and a couple of screens that are in there find a material similar to the screens you took out it'll be easy just close is good you can purchase replacement charcoal act like a fish store or something they use for filters Buffalo farm boys use the filters to go above your stove those also catch fumes and have that same charcoal and they kind of fold them over and over inside once you got your screens back in fill it back up with charcoal of your choice J-B Weld plastic weld whatever the case back together and you're good.I like the stove grease filter idea better than the granular charcoal
