I have researched on this forum for a couple of days trying to figure out if the 914-6 came with an expansion tank and charcoal canister, I do not have either on my '70 # 2604. My 6 has the brackets for the expansion tank so that seems logical but I have seen a lot of posts saying the 6's did not have a canister, does anyone have an original 6 that could comment on this. Thanks!

Mine is #379. Don't got neither. Original as far as I know. Hose looks original and routed out the bottom.

Mine is #379. Don't got neither. Original as far as I know. Hose looks original and routed out the bottom. Same here (other than the VIN, obviously). I've owned two. One very original and the other not quite. Both 1970 and neither had the charcoal cannister. Just the overflow drain out the bottom. As others have noted - it seems to be one of those inconsistent things. Not an early-late or California-rest of country item. - MR |
