Hello all, I need to change vapor canister surge solenoid and vent on 2000 SSEi, where do I find the canister at. Don't know what exactly in looking for and don't want to screw anything up. Thanks all for your help. Aaron

The arrow points to the evap solenoid.

The vent valve is under the car, on the driver's side back by the rear tire.
