Evap canister removal

[shinckley08]

I need to replace the evap canister in my 2013 LR4. I purchased all the parts, canister, pump and gasket. The issue, despite all my research and effort I gave up and put everything back with the new pump and gasket.

I saw a few limited detail videos that identified it was a pita but with all the hoses in that area unhooked up/downstream it can be rotated and manipulated out.

As far as I can assess the body would need to be separated from the chassis. I backed out the two rear body mount bolts and put a jack on the body and it didn’t budge

I’d love to be proven stupid here

All the body bolts will need to be removed. Except, for the the two very front ones.

Thanks, that makes sense, it will hinge on the front mounts. Thanks for not calling me out, where was my head was at with the physics, the body is no going to bend.

If you have time, are there connections I need to be weary about that I may not be able to see from the spare tire area? I’m assuming I need to disconnect the filler hose and everything else down in that area

Filler pipe can stay attached.
There are two damper shocks behind the rear bumper, remove the lower bolts.

I'm curious what problems are you having that lead to replacing the evap canister?

Man! I thought the evap leak detection pump was a PITA to replace. I'm pretty sure Im converting to a rear tire carrier and cutting metal if I had to replace the canister.

There are a few things going on that I think are all coorilated. As soon as it gets over 90 degrees and I idle for more than a few minutes I get a vapor smell, if I idle long enough it gets in the cabin.
Within the same window it started pinging, I have a separate post for that. But after watching fuel trims and trying to rule things out I wondered if the two were connected, and when hot I’m dumping so much vapor it runs rich, then adjusts quickly making it lean.

I’m not sure if it’s going to resolve anything, I swapped it out tonight and it suposed to be hot tomorrow. Had it in for the fuel flange recall, and now have a mostly replaced evap system. I’ll need a new purge valve too I’m guessing.

When I shook the canister around a bunch of dust like material came out

I did what Rover Range advised, it took about 2 hours. Used wood blocks and wood wedges to hold the body up while I finagled it out, went smooth actually

Thanks again, it went smooth following your instructions.
