The Link below is to a picture of a black box that is located above and forward of the rear axel. There is a hose going to the canister located above the spare.

My question is is there a hose missing? Click on link below.

nope
it is all good.
There is a hose comming from the other end and that is what is important.
It is a charcol / vapor canister. It has to do with fuel vapors.
So don't set it on fire :)

THanks for the info.. YEP no smoky smoke
