Mike, I have a 4.0L Charcoal Canister due to the MPI kit. Does this one
come apart too with a filter at the bottom?

Thanks,

Bill

Ouch....

None of them 'come apart' that I have seen, you have to dig or as in my
case hammer and chisel the old filter out and just tuck the new one back
in....

I have heard of a couple people that had one they could unscrew it in
half to get at the filter but all the ones I have seen and my book says
to just dig the old one out.

There is an easy test anyway. Just take off the line to the gas tank or
open the gas cap and try it. If it runs better with the line off or the
cap open, you have a dead filter.

Down here in the country to the south of Canada, the packaging for the
Fram version says (unhelpfully) "crankcase vent". (For those other than
Mike, it is a white, non-woven fibre disk about 4" in diameter and about
1/4" thick.)

The reason I couldn't figure out how to get mine out (a few months ago)
was that there wasn't one in there. I was looking at the foam rubber
bottom of the charcoal pile. If Bill is looking at foam rubber behind a
plastic grill and not a fibre disk behind a bar or two, his is AWOL as
well.

4WheelDrive has the fuel tank senders for US$27 (p/n 5357373), the
complete kit with lock ring, gasket and sock for US$35 (p/n 5357373K).
JC Whitney has the senders for US$20 (p/n AKC159260U). Quadratec has the
senders for US$26 (p/n 55107.02).

Much, much better than the US$150 my local dealer buggered me for on my
Cherokee's sender.
