charcoal canister purchase - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

speedyts49 · 08-30-2005, 05:16 PM

I can't seem to find any aftermarker places to buy a new charcoal canister for my '91 celica.
The dealer had for for a little over $200 but I was hoping to get that price down a little.
The one in the car does not pass the blow air in test in the factory manual.
Trying to solve a few problems;

Try to use throttle body cleaner to clean it out.

have you tried local boneyards? i may have one around the arae. pm me if you're interested.

I was thinking of maybe going to the salvage yards and yes we have a bunch of them around here.
I may try the throttle cleaner first and then see if I can find one for cheap at the bone yard.

they do have lots of parts and I will bookmark that link.
They do not show a charcoal canister though.
At least I could not find it.

Is there a way to tell what other models I could get this cannister out of? I would like to get the newest one I can when I get to the salvage yard.

speedyts49 · 09-03-2005, 05:44 PM

I went to the dealer today and got a part number. 77704-20270
I may take mine out tomorrow and retest it then go to the salvage yard and get one but check it out before giving them the cash. I just have to take some compressed air.
edit
I just looked at the one in my Tacoma and it looks like it should fit the Celica. Maybe I'll see if I can get a new one off a wrecked Tacoma,hmm.

The throttle cleaner did open it back up. I do not know what it is supposed to feel like but air does blow through there now.
I went to the salvage yards today but they were closed for labor day weekend so I did not get a used one.
Time will tell if it helps get rid of the code 71 and hard starting when warm.

edit update;
No it did not help the hard starting when warm problem, crap.

Try another ignition coil.

speedyts49 · 09-06-2005, 11:32 PM

I don't think the egr test passes after all. On one test the vacuum should of gone to 13#per inch but it did not. I will pull the egr and tube and clean etc then if that does not do it I may just replace the egr for $150, damn!

thanks pineapple I know you had a problem with your coil and I may get to that but for now I am following the factory manual. Pretty soon I will have ALL the parts replaced.
I appreciate all suggestions.
