Can anyone tell me what is the big round cylinder shaped thing under the battery? What it does, and how bad is it if one of the cables coming out of it is broke in half(it has a little plastic thing with a sping, rubber seal and something else).
Thank.

Fuel Vapor Recovery Cannister. Smog stuff, keeps most/some/part/a little bit of the fumes from the gas tank from escaping and making us all live in a permanent nuclear (or, nuk your ler) winter. Or was it global warming? New Ice Age? Or some crap like that.

One day science will realize the true solution to humans affecting the planet is to cut the beating heart out of human sacrifices, like the Aztecs knew.
 
Well, I was changing the fuel filter on my car, and noticed that one of the tubes that has a plastick thing in the middle of it is broke(the plastic part). How bad is it for my car? Should I fix it as soon as possible?
