  Q: How to service and repair the Vapor Canister on Toyota FJ Cruiser?

  A: Service and repair of the Evaporative Emission Control Canister requires workers to discharge fuel system pressure before disconnecting the negative battery cable terminal. For charcoal canister assembly service, you must first disconnect the fuel tank breather tube from the fuel tank by pushing the connector deep inside then pulling under portion A. Verify that no particles reside on the fuel tank vent hose connector and maintain a tool-free workspace. You must push or pull the stuck fuel vent connector and pipe to break their attachment. Use the same method to disconnect the No. 2 canister outlet hose sub-assembly before removing its three bolts and disconnecting both the connector and EVAP hose to take out the charcoal canister assembly. To install the charcoal canister assembly properly, attach it to the three bolts while torquing them to 20 N.m (204 kgf.cm, 15 ft.lbf) before connecting the EVAP hose and the connector. Connect the No. 2 canister outlet hose sub-assembly through pipe connector alignment followed by push insertion until the retainer activates while checking for foreign matter and scratches. Repetition of this step should be done for the fuel tank vent hose where quick connector connection verification is performed by pulling on it. The negative battery cable should be reconnected and torqued to 3.9 N.m (40 kgf.cm, 35 in.lbf) after which fuel leakage needs to be inspected.
