        What does the charcoal canister really do? Doesn't it maintain the pressure in the fuel tank? That sounds important.

          takes fuel vapor and directs it into the engine to reduce hydrocarbon emissions

                          When I did my headgasket I was left with a bunch of spare nuts and washers and some bolts too...

                          I got rid of the plastic thing that says BMW over the spark plugs, and the plastic seat that goes under where the spark plugs go. I never reconnected/refilled my windshield washer stuff. That plastic undertray that goes under the valence pissed me off too.

                              Engine fan, TB heater plates, ad some of the PS hardware. The aux fan will be coming out too as soon as I find some other reason to take the bumper off...
