they check the cap to make sure it seal properly. Thats all they did on mine. i know i am not a 68 but i am a 69 so i dunno how much that changes. they put the sniffers on. check for mufflers. make sure the cap seals and that was all she wrote.

Umm. does it look like the bottom of a coffe can? I have one on the inside tire well. right behind the front passanger tire in other words below that spring. i never knew what it was nor can i see the color of it due to age, mud, dirt etc.
