What is this part (see pic)

It's not a buddy, but I'm guessing that someone out there knows what this is. It has 2 hoses connected at the front and 2 unconnected tubes coming out the back.

Is it my Flux Capacitor?

If one of the hoses is going to the air filter and the other to the gas tank, I'd say it is a charcoal canister for capturing gasoline vapors. Essentially, part of the emissions equipment.

Damn, I was rooting for Flux Capacitor. But then again, I could never reach the required 88 mph!

By the way, where does the power steering fluid go?

I am pretty sure that houses the fetzer valve. It looks stuck. I'm going to need some 30 weight ball bearings and a quart of Prestone Antifreeze....no make that Quakerstate.

The fetzer valve is easily made workable again by soaking in relative bearing wash for about 30 minutes. Saves a lot of money over replacement.
