$100 PLUS Labor!  You'd be lucky to get out of a mechanic's shop for under $100.

The part should be pretty easy to find in a junkyard, they were the same for a lot of different cars.  And I think a single bolt holds it in.  Mine fell off my old LTD once and I managed somehow to find it off the side of the road.

I just replaced a rusted fuel return line on my other Ford and the canister on it looks to be the same one.  Are these still available from parts sources?  A few years back I checked the cost and I recall hearing something like $40-$50?  Not cheap, so it went on the back burner for maintenance thoughts.  Maybe they really do last the life of the vehicle??
