from what i've read, it's part of the vapor emissions controls - it absorbs excess fuel vapors from the gas tank, then the ECU purges the vapors to the intake as necessary.

if your state has emisions testing leave it in!

if your like me (thanks JEB BUSH) take that bitch out and kick it to the curb. you can then use the vaccum source that the purge soleniod one took up on the back of the manifold.

btw, you can toss the soleniod to, the ecu wont even notice that its gone.
