Replacing Vapor Canister.

02, extended cab. Canister under bed.

Is it necessary, or easier over all, to pull the bed to replace the vapor canister, etc?

 

fairly certain that can RR canister without removing bed (book pays .3hr and no labor instructions(like W/Bed Removed)

 

No being a "pro" tech/mechanic, don't know what that means. With all the dirt/crud/corrosion likely to be falling in my face, I doubt it will only take me what 18 minutes? Or is that Three Hours and not Zero point three hours?

 

I would watch numerous of these videos for tips/tricks

it would bite me in the ass just trying to unplug it.

 

Typically, before I wrench on my friends rigs, I ask that they take their truck to a DIY car wash specifically to thoroughly pressure wash whatever area we're going to be working on. Makes for a much better experience for all involved.
