Need help fast!!!
There is a black canister sitting between the AC thing and the radiator.
What is it and where does the tube coming out of the bottom plug in? Changing my oil and noticed this thing came loose and was dangling.

Between the condensor and the radiator? What AC thing?
What do you mean canister? What's it made of? Color? Shape? Connected to something?

Black Plastic Cylinder. 2 small hoses out of the top. 1 out of the bottom.
It rests between the condensor and the radiator.

I can't say I've ever seen something like that in that place. I'd go check my car, but someone is wrenching it on the other side of the highway atm.
Can you see where the hoses are connecting, if to anything? Are they air hoses or do they seem to carry liquids? Is your tranny line hooked up the the radiator? I ask this because if everything else seems to be right, I wouldn't worry too much about it right now.

This cannister sits beside the condensor and has lines from it. Part of the AC system I assume. I lifted the car up but can find no place for this third hose coming out of the bottom.

That's what I thought at first, but it's not near the condensor. Maybe he thinks the silver thing is the condensor? I know I used to think it was.
If it's that cannister, there are no hoses on the bottom. -- BTW, whoever's car that is, that's a lot of rusty bolts. Sheesh.

That's the charcoal canister. It is connected to the fuel system. There is a hose coming out the bottom. The hose out the bottom just plugs into the frame rail underneath it.
generic description from the internet: Quote:
and another that explains the purpose Quote:

Frame rail underneath. Got it. Thanks.
Sorry about misnomer on the Ac condensor. I meant the silver cylinder with the bubble window.

One more thing, in Nomake Wan's picture what is that off-white connection on one of the hoses to that cannister?
I've never seen that.

The off-white thing looks like some kind of flow control device to me. |
