hose identification

[rfkellner at snet.net (Rick Kellner)]

The canister is part of the emission control.  It traps gasoline fumes
and then vents them to be burned while the motor is running.  The
venting is controlled by a valve.  There is another line, not the one
you were questioning, going to the canister.  This line comes from the
fuel expansion tank which has another line to the fuel tank.  There are
quite a few hoses involved with the system.
Rick.
