I had a snoop underneath yesterday. My god that carbon canister is well hidden! I don't fancy having to do any maintenance on that! But all the hoses to it appear OK. I checked the J pipe that apparently is common to split and that is fine. No sign of any leaks or corrosion up under the filler and down to the tank. I did forget to inspect the filter again so I'll do that next.
