please help

Hi my buddy just bought a 89 22re pick up there is something sparking under the hood, drivers side under the hood between brake fluid and power steering cylenders. He said it only sparks when its warm and is sparking between 2 nuts. the canister looks similar to a charcoal canister but is not one

Most likely a loose ground wire if it was from the positive side it would you hope open a fuse.

Find just what is arcing and go from there .

Yes ^^^, If there's anyone who is in the best position to find out what's wrong, it's you. The best tools for troubleshooting classics are our senses; Look, smell, feel, listen to what's wrong. Dive in there.

I try the smell touch feel with every new women I meet for some reason most all seem to like it

Most likely best to avoid those.
