carbon canister related i reckon. if you dont have the carbon canister, just remove them and block the pipes off.

so, you're saying that running the engine without it doesn't cause any problems as such?

Just make sure you block the pipes up at the intake manifold side otherwise your idle will be affected.

There are reasons not to remove the charcoal canister but no-one has managed to blow themselves up as of yet lol.

My starlets all run them. But my fiats one has been removed and it's fine. Just block those pipes

I've never known any going bang, not even on other Toyota models when removed. It's there to do something but if taken off won't destroy the car......as we know anyway

its for emission control from the fuel tank vent. its not needed.

oh okay...lol...it was missing that part ever since i bought the engine from malaysia, last year, and i blocked it with a bolt...but yesterday a friend (mechanic, who owns a glanzaV) had me freaking out about it, saying that it's a very important component, and that i shouldn't have blocked it.

well, thanks for the clarifications guys, i really appreciate your help on here...
