Hi folks.

I am fairly certain that the Vanagon charcoal filter canister is NLA. This
would be for a 1981 gas Vanagon.

I'm currently in Brookings OR and can travel a reasonable distance. My bus
is running ok right now but if anyone had a known good canister they could
sell me or could suggest a source (wrecker, etc.) I might be interested in
it.

I have not confirmed if the current canister at fault or if it's simply a
clogged hose but I'm about 100% certain it is or will soon fail.

Thanks,

Neil.
