Charcoal canister is under the LHF guard, not in the car. If it was in the car that would make driving fun on a whole new level
 Manual? I have no idea what Fairlanes are. If it is manual it could be the common pedalbox issues (firewall becomes cracked/damaged). Otherwise, just check for cables that could be becoming loose. Is it only while the car is running or when it is off and stationary? - Shane |

wrong track guys. when i push the pedal there is an electrical click. not something broken click. its coming from inside the bem i think. i can put my hand on it and feel it click inside. the car is also on gas if that helps.

I dunno where they mount the solenoid for the gas these days ( still under the hood ) ? , if it aint under the hood then it could be mounted somehwere around there , and causing the clicking sound .

It's a wierd one, does it sound like a relay - i.e like your indicators
And does it do it once, or cycles, if so how long and how fast? |

the click is coming from the bem as far as i can see. it does it just as the acc is pushed down and at the same point on the release. its about 3mm so it is something coming in/on when i touch the load pedal.

i recently had my wagon converted to LPG. My Lpg regulator sits on the right hand side of vehicle. When i pressed accelerator pedal i had a noticible clicking sound. I noticed that the hole for the new LPG wiring in the engine bay to the cabin was open or unsealed. I just sealed it with silicone and the clicking cannot now be heard. My issue was that you could hear the regulator pumping through the unsealed hole when pressing the accelerator.
