[s-cars] Emission Canister

[Sean Douglas]

Alvin;

Is your car from the East? Aka rust belt?

Take a close look at your fuel lines, you may have a small pinhole leak.
Mine did the exact same thing and it was a pinhole leak in the one of the
fuel lines. It wasn't big enough to drip, but it sweated after I parked it.

I cut out the bad section and spliced in a rubber hose.
