Evaporative Emission Control Canister

[De Fiero 88]

Hey Guys,

I am trying to replace all filters. The EECC is a not listed part at the auto zone and advance parts. Can you give me another name for it? Also, please tell me this car is fuel injected. I am arguing with people that it is and I know it's gotta be. Thanks

Try Charcoal Canister or Vapor Canister. It's considered an emission system part, and not a filter.

AC/Delco(OEM) Part #215-35 Fits any year, any engine.

Facts:

All 84-88 Fieros with 4 cylinder engines used a Pontiac "Iron Duke" 2.5L L4 with Throttle Body Electronic Fuel Injection (TBI)

All 85-88 Fieros with 6 Cylinder engines used a Chevrolet 2.8L 60 degree V6 with Multi Port Electronic Fuel Injection (MPI) The V6 was not available in 1984.

The only other GM car that didn't have a front mounted engine was the Corvair. (62-69) These cars did NOT have fuel injection, They used a turbocharged 1x2bbl, 2x1bbl, or 4x1bbl carb setup. This might the car people are thinking of when they tell you your car has a carburetor.

Unless someone changed or modified the engine in your car, it HAS to be fuel injected.

Thanks. nobody changed the engine. It's original and it's fuel injected. But they told me not to change the canisiter filter because it's never changed. I wonder why, they said it's serves it's purpose and it just built to last. I said bull if I find a part for it, it can be changed or check out one.

They do wear out over time and while it's not common, they can cause trouble when they get old. If you live in an area with emissions testing, a working evap system is a MUST. You're doing the right thing by changing it, when they're working 100% they do improve fuel economy by capturing gasoline that evaporates from the tank and passing it through the engine. With gas prices the way they are, who can afford to waste a couple molecules? lol
