Charcoal. Google it, example: https://www.carparts.com/blog/what-does-a-vapor-canister-do/amp/ Note it’s not part of ADR27A, nor ADR27. Was mandated from 1/1/75 independent of the introduction of both. Edited by user Wednesday, 24 January 2024 8:31:45 PM(UTC)

Thank you both for the replies. :-)
I remember it being called a charcoal canister so was expecting to see an indication of such on the diagrams.
Try as I might with Google I can't find what the inside looks like. Does the charcoal ever lose effectiveness and need to be replaced?
