Review on ACDelco 214 1091 Original Equipment Canister: Superior Quality and Specific Fit for Optimal Performance by Chris Ostby

Revainrating 5 out of 5

2002 Tahoe LS 4.8L Vapor Canister

Perfect replacement. year varied with replacement. I have rare P0443 trouble codes and recurring P0440 Evap Emission System trouble codes. I replaced the evaporator flush valve a few years ago, but the check engine light kept coming on after every second gas filling. The pressure in the tank seems alarmingly high. The fill didn't click prematurely, but gas fumes were released when the new gas cap was removed. So I suspected a valve or a clogged line. The hose is leaking under the hood at the flush valve, which I've changed twice already. Since it is cheap and has traveled 270,000 km, I have now tried it. Error codes reset themselves on startup. A few weeks without errors. Installation was easy. Use jackstands under your back! It's much easier, about 5 minutes of work. Google how to remove the hose as this is the hardest part.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Unsafe
