charcoal vapor canister and UOA??

[Russell]

I just replaced my charcoal vapor canister on my 95 BMW 525i with 111,000 miles. Would a defective canister affect UOA? My last two UOA from Blackstone showed fuel dilution issues. Crankcase ventilation was suspected. Of course I could have one or more bad coils or fuel injection issues. Just trying to eliminate potential issues. TIA

When you fill up on gas do you top off?The cannister can get flooded from a top off.

I used to top off the tank all the time. I quit doing it when I heard that it coulc flood/plug the canister over time.
