i'm in the middle of putting my K reg C16SE GSI project back together

in the drivers side front wheel arch mounted on the front bumper iron
mounting bolts is a mounting frame for the carbon canister?
it has three pipes come out of it
one runs back towards the fuel tank
one think is just a breather
and the other under the bonnet

what i need to know is what direction they run and where they are mounted.
any photo's would be great and rep to anyone who helps

not 100% but i think they were only fitted on the C16SE GSI
and the C14SE SRI

cheers stu

I've removed it on my corsa too, Also removed it on the nova when i broke it removing the bumper beam lol

Just blank the vacuum, remove the breather that went into the cross member, and then leave the line from the fuel tank in the front arch.

had these on a few novas and corsas they dont do anything really just cut the pipes and remove it its something to do with lowering the exhaust emitions i think

its a stupid ruling about limiting the emissions sources... thus the breather goes into the engine, the fuel tank breather has to as well.........some EU cobblers as usual
