Default RE: fuel tank pressure sensor

I just went through this process on my '98. It is pretty easy to get the canister out, which you will likely need to do just to get to it. There is a black plastic housing that covers the 2-way valve and the pressure sensor (if it is indeed #36 on diagram). This took me about 15 minutes to get in and get out. There is one 12mm bolt holding the canister in. With a 6in extension you can easily remove it. Remove the vapor line attached to the canister before letting it drop, you really don't want to break that one :-)!!! Open the protective housing located between the canister and the vapor filter, then remove the two way valve/sensor assy. It's a cake walk. Tools needed: Philips head #2, 6in extension, ratchet, 12mm socket, and angled long neck needlenose (for clips and vapor line (squeeze sides and it will pop right off).

Good Luck!!!

OH YEAH>>>

You will need to take the canister mounting bracket off of the car also to access the bolt holding the sensor in (12 or 10mm socket). When it gives you trouble pulling it out, turn it 45 degrees to the left, then push it toward the front of the car, and pull the rear portion out first. You will have to free a few lines to do this...
