Are you referring to the air ride canister or the vacuum one that mounts on the Air Conditioning plentum? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lastss Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 No the bracket for the emissions vacuum canister that lines go to to carb and store fuel fumes is what I thought he means. I do still have other parts just health gets in the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommyLCoulter Posted April 7 Author Share Posted April 7 Yes, it's the one that goes to the carb and stores fuel fumes (the little metal soup can). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marks71 Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 Sounds to me like it’s the one, as Rob said that mounts to the.AC plenum and not that carbon canister mounted on the drivers side next to the radiator. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mon-tss Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 I don't think 70 used that cannister unless you have a California emissions car 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did all the 71s have them? Mines a Kansas City build and it has one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stangeba Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Picture from my 71 350 4bbl Monte. Lots of small hoses attached to all this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stangeba Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 3 more pics of the evap system on my 71: This was leaking vacuum (see the damage) so I replaced the entire canister many years ago. This small blue restrictor was inside one of the small hoses, shown on the diagram below. I almost threw that restrictor out the day I replaced all the small hoses. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree Willie. I don't know if I have seen many, if any 71/72's with that type of vacuum cannisters. I have seen some 70 Monte's with the plastic ones. I think it is kind of funny when I look at mine. It almost looks like a they had some coffee cans laying around and decided to do an original "recycle" alteration. rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dtret Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 I’ve never seen that. School me. I need more pictures. Where exactly does it go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dennis, it mounts on the air conditioning plenum, between the planum and the passenger side valve cover but slightly higher than the valve cover. It is either black plastic on a 71 and 72 but looks like a sealed coffee can on most 70 Monte's. I will see if I can find one in a picture. rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Peters Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Here you go Dennis: you can see it between the air cleaner and AC plenum painted simi gloss black. I am not sure where it mounts on a Non/AC car. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dtret Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Thanks. I was thinking of the emission canister not the coffee can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
