The Carbon Canister was fitted first to 1975 B210 to capture fumes from the fuel tank. Instead of letting the fumes just to go the atmosphere. In the Canister is an activated charcoal filter. Later when the engine runs, fresh air is drawn through the filter and burned in the engine. Like all 1200s, the fuel tank Filler Cap is not vented. It seals the gas tank well, so that any fumes must go through the vent hose. In the case of EVAPO models, the tank is vented in the engine compartment through a steel Evaporative Fuel Line.
