1973 Evaporative Emissions canister question -

(1/2) > >>

fourfords:
Greetings, new to the forum.
I am currently searching for a 71 - 73 Convertible.
My question is, the cars I have found (mostly online) some have emissions canisters and some do not.
Even cars that appear very original may or may not have the canister.
Did all 73's come with canisters or not?

Thanks,
Fred

J_Speegle:
Not sure if all export or 6 cylinder Mustangs in 73 received the evap system. Believe 6 cylinders did but would have to check the emission books that aren't handy at the moment

nham3407:
My AMA Specs for 73 show "All Engines" to have the carbon canister.

From the 73-77 MPC

D1AZ-9B328-A fuel vapor separator assembly fits most 73 Ford products including all Mustangs.  No exceptions. Not conclusive but a reference point.

krelboyne:
Yes, the vapor separator plus the non-vented fuel cap is the give away.

For 1971-73, we often find the charcoal canisters missing, but the rest of the vapor lines and what not, are still present.
