2001 Lexus gs430 charcoal evap fuel vapor cannister??
Hey guys,
My name isJohn. Im actually 1 day new to the forum.
I was wondering about a couple of things?
The replacemenet OEM part # for a charcoal canister for a 2001 Lexus GS430 is
OEM#77740-30273. My first question, anybody know where I can get my hands on a new charcoal canister for the cheapest amount of money possible seeing my car has 110,000 miles. The dealer is asking like $800, and the cheapest I found it was on ebay for about $550. Is there any possibility I can get it cheaper than the $550. Just cause, it is so NOT worth that amount of money.
Second question, if I was to replace the fuel vapor solenoid would that have any effect just cause I need to get an inspection sticker by the end of August.
From what I have read on About.com,, they would say remove the canister, disconnect the vacuum hoses and then re-install it. That would get rid of that check engine light?...Anybody know how true that is?...would it work?....or would a solenoid replacemenet just fix the problem.
I honestly don't want to shell out a BIG $550 for a fuel vapor canister. Its so not worth it man
Thanks guys,
have a great weekend!
