I think but am not sure that the '71 Stag originally came with a canister
with 2 ports. But unfortunately, know one has confirmed. In some of the
manuals and parts books, there are illustrations of the Stag having 2
2-port canisters.
Stag no1 has a carburetor swap to a later Mk2 set. The Mk2 2 Stag has a
3-port canister. The ports on this type are vertical. I was able to find a
3 port canister from a junkyard. It came out of an MGB. THis canister
didn't have a restrictor.
