Okay, so I need to remove the EVAP canister and cant figure out for the life of me why I cant get it out.
My Haynes manual is worthless as all it says is remove the connections which I have done and then it says remove the bolt. Where in the heck is this bolt???
ok, figured it out.... the manual calls it an EVAP canister, i finally google "charcoal canister" and found that the 02 TB is connected with a clip...no bolts...no straps...you have to work the "right side" (closest to the front)...you will see two clips and a slot for a screwdriver...place a screwdriver into the slot and work the clip off...the rear clip slides right off.
i had to remove the canister to swap out my transmission...(didnt work out to well for me)...will be asking what i did wrong in an upcoming post.
Thanks for your thread. I too have to remove the canister in order to remove one of the bolts in the cross member. I intend to reverse the bolt when I put it back together so removal of the canister won't be necessary if the cross member ever has to be removed again. I was prying on the canister, even used a screwdriver in the slots you mentioned. Evidently I didn't pry hard enough. Back to the task at hand with more confidence now:thx
I too ran into this problem and the undo the bolt description in the Haynes manual. Thanks to your advice I got the can off without breaking it (I was getting close to just busting it off.
Hey here. I'm glad to hear you were successful. I'm not as lucky. So just to make sure, I need to be working on the clips closest to the cross member and not the clip near the gas tank.
