I know the system in my Jeep is effed up. There is a tube that runs from the junk under the hood to a canister in the back that is rusted all to hell. I found it when I changed the brake lines. I don't really know what it does... I originally thought it was part of the fuel system but I have been corrected on that.

It doesn't throw a CEL or anything so I am just ignoring it for now. The inspector don't care and I don't care so...

if that is what i think it is, it should be some kind of filtration canister. i have one under my hood, but it doesnt do anything anymore.

here's 2 things that happened to me yesterday that were


1st. I got rear-ended on the way home from work yesterday after dropping my coworker off. The person behind me was already stopped but rolled into me @ a rather long pause @ the light. She fell asleep @ the wheel. I pulled over & she followed - not a scratch, dent, or wobbly loose part. have a nice day!

2nd. I go to Kroger to get groceries & pick up a $50.00 itunes card - we have the check yourself out lanes - I swipe it 1st - chick @ the register that oversees those lanes just ignores the machine that says see attendant. I figure she magically activated it using the force or something (you are supposed to take it to them & they "activate" it)

Anyways so around 10:00 I go to key in the number on the card and itunes tells me the card isn't activated. The thing is - my receipt for the groceries is buried in the trash - soooo I have to go fish it out - they didn't even charge me for the damn card. have a nice day!
I'm confused... You have the card in your possession BUT it is no good cuz the chick at the store didn't scan it? BUT you aren't pissed cuz you didn't pay for it, right? So basically everybody's time has just been wasted.

I honestly have no clue. From what I can tell, most Jeepers don't either. It is really weird lookin and just hangs out near the tailgate. It is tied into the wiring of the thing and, if you cut it, the CEL comes on so most just leave it alone.

It probably does something but it is a mystery to me.

what you need to do, is rwrite down the number on the card, then return it. wait for them to activate it and sell it to someone and then use it.
