Correct. Known as the Charcoal Canister.
BTW, they get clogged sometimes.
A little compressed air in the correct (one way) port and it's as good as new.

Don't lie to the poor guy. That's your flux capacitor bud. Keep it hooked up, it doesn't do much for low end power but it does wonders for the top end. Once you hit 88MPH you'll see some serious ****...



Throw it. Throw it as FAR as you can.
