Hi,

The canister is located on top of the fuel tank. Replacement requires the removal of the fuel tank.

If you look at pic 1 below, I highlighted the carbon canister. Pic 2 are the directions for replacing it after the tank is removed. The remaining pics are for removing and replacing the fuel tank.

Let me know if this helps. Also, replacement is the opposite of removal.


Take care,

Joe

See pics below.
