    I would replace it. They are supposed to only have a finite life anyway. Yours was very finite.

    What about a late model wreck . Any canister about the same size should do, say from a Holden or Falcon.

    If you decide to ditch it, the thing to do is drill a hole in the fuel cap, or you could just say put a little Ryco filter on the end of the line from the tank, but I would be worried about the fumes in the engine bay.
    How did the fire happen? Was the canister involved? An LPG backfire?
    Regards Philip A

    Thanks

    Yes a brake fluid reservior and some other bits also victim to this cookout. Thanks PhillipA I think probably worthwhile replacing canister. A dodgy relay with inbuilt fuse was the culprit. Seperate fuse I think would have blown.

    I would be fairly dubious about the seals inside the brake master cylinder.

    I just bought the rebuild kit from Paddockspares.com that had everything you would need except the reservoir. That is part of another kit.
