Hi Victor,

here's what LR repair manual states for Disco II's up to '03:

1. Raise vehicle on lift.
2. Remove 3 Torx screws securing fuel leak detection pump to mounting bracket.
3. Remove 3 bolts securing EVAP canister mounting bracket to chassis longitudinal.
4. Remove 2 bolts securing EVAP canister to mounting bracket and collect clamp.
5. Remove mounting bracket.
6. Position cloth to absorb any fuel spillage.
7. Release purge and tank vent pipes from EVAP canister.
8. Remove clip securing fuel leak detection pump pipe to EVAP canister.
9. Release pipe from EVAP canister and remove canister.

CAUTION: Plug the connections.

Refit
1. Remove plugs and ensure all connections are clean.
2. Connect fuel leak detection pump pipe to EVAP canister and secure with clip.
3. Connect purge and tank vent pipes to EVAP canister.
4. Position mounting bracket to EVAP canister and secure with bolts.
5. Position mounting bracket to chassis longitudinal and tighten bolts.
