It could be the purge solenoid under the manifold. Do you have any other symptoms like difficulty fueling or hard to start after fueling when hot?

No difficulty fueling. I have had issues starting when it is warm, once in a while. I also have excessive vacuum on the gas cap when I open it after driving.

How do I determine which cannister I have?

You can call a Porsche dealer parts dept or pelican parts. They can decode it from your vin.

You probable have a failed evap solenoid. If you replace it get the Porsche part with the hose attached. Buying the solenoid separately is difficult to get sealed.
