What is it?
After owning it for a year and a half I'm still making "discoveries" on my MkII 960 [an early one was no dipstick for the auto box] todays "find" is what appears to be a cylindrical device mounted behind the passenger side headlamp[and a bit lower so it sits at a height below the black plastic bulb cover]and ahead of the air filter box.It has what look to be two vacuum pipes and a larger bore rubber pipe going to the top of it.Any ideas what it is and what it's for?

I'll see what I can do re-photos but I'm not very good[OK totally hopeless] when it comes to working out computer stuff.

Electric vacuum pump for cruise control is mounted on the inner wing/wheel arch in line with the strut tower. Electric headlight adjusters are indeed in the same area to the EVAP canister but are rectangular and mounted directly to the back of the lamp casing whereas the canister sits lower down in the "battery" tray. |
