Okay so my car has had the engine light read and my mechanic advised me that it was a canister that sucked air out of the gas tank at startup. Does anybody know where it is located? He said it was usually black in a smooth cylindrical form usually found in the driver side.
Thanks in Advance,

It probably is fuel line hose. Get the size and buy fuel hose for fuel injection. Normally 5/16 inch or 8mm. Take a piece with you. Buy new clamps also.
