Hello again. I am losing my umph going uphill _sometimes_! This was main reason/concern about the canister. I have replaced the choke pull-off, fuel filter, and fuel pump. I have to go over a 'hill' on my way to work every night and sometimes it is no problem. Other times, it seems as though the carb is flooding out. This carb is like no other I've seen, is it an _easy_ rebuild? Is the 'carb' my problem? TIA. Dan

I probably won't be of much help to you with your problem, but I'll tell you this (which eventually MAY get you some help..) Without knowing what kind of vehicle this is, what year it is, mileage, etc.. It is next to impossible for anyone to help you.. Re-Post with more details, and pray to the RAMJ+W Gods.

First thing I thought was fuel filter, but I see you did that... have you hunted down any vacuum leaks?
The kit for the carb runs about $20.00 and is easy to do. i just make a point of not taking anything apart that doesn't need to be moved to clean.
To test the canister, just drive home tonight with the gas cap loose or off. If it still bogs, the canister is fine.
I don't know if you have tested the canister or not or changed it's air filter?
