DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION


EVAPORATIVE EMISSIONS

NOTE: The vehicle emission vacuum routing diagrams are contained in the Description
and Operation subsection of the Engine Emissions Control part. Refer to
ENGINE EMISSION CONTROL article.

The evaporative emission (EVAP) system consists of the:

 EVAP canister purge valve.


 EVAP canister.
 EVAP canister vent solenoid (includes the dust separator).
 fuel vapor tube assembly (includes the fuel tank pressure [FTP] sensor).
 fuel tank filler cap.

The EVAP system:

 prevents hydrocarbon emissions from reaching the atmosphere.


 stores fuel vapors in the EVAP canisters, that are generated during vehicle operation or hot soak, until
they can be consumed by the engine during normal engine operation.
 routes the stored fuel vapors to the engine during engine operation.
 is controlled by the PCM which, using various sensor inputs, calculates the desired amount of purge flow.
The PCM regulates the purge flow, induced by the application of intake manifold vacuum, by varying the
duty cycle applied to the vapor tube.

The fuel vapors are routed:

 from the fuel tank through the vapor vent valve (internal to the tank).
 to the EVAP canisters through a vapor tube.

 from the EVAP canister to the engine when the EVAP canister purge valve is opened by the PCM.

The FTP sensor (part of fuel vapor tube assembly):

 monitors the pressure levels in the fuel tank.


 communicates the pressure reading to the PCM during the OBD II leak test.

The fuel vapor tube assembly:

 is located midway under the vehicle along the LH frame rail.


 is used to route the flow of fuel vapors entering the EVAP system.

The EVAP canister:

 is located on the underside of the vehicle directly below the driver seat.
 contains activated carbon.
 stores fuel vapors.

The fuel tank filler cap:

 is sealed against the fuel tank filler pipe and does not relieve system pressure.

The EVAP canister vent solenoid:

 is normally open.
 seals the EVAP system for the inspection and maintenance (I/M 240) test and OBD II leak and pressure
tests.
 is mounted to the EVAP canister bracket.

The EVAP canister purge valve:

 is normally closed.
 regulates the purging of the EVAP canister.
 is controlled by the PCM.
 is repaired as a separate item.
 is mounted to the cowl on a bracket.

The EVAP dust separator:

 is attached to the EVAP canister vent solenoid mounted on the EVAP canister bracket.
 prevents suspended dust and dirt particles from entering the EVAP system.
 is repaired as an assembly with the EVAP canister vent solenoid.

The EVAP system monitor:

 is a self-test strategy within the PCM which tests the integrity of the EVAP system.
 monitors the EVAP system for leaks.
 monitors electronic EVAP components for irrationally high or low voltages.
 monitors for correct EVAP system operation.
 uses negative and positive leak test methods to test and activate the EVAP system.

The engine ON EVAP leak-check monitor:

 is executed by the individual components of the enhanced EVAP system. Intake manifold vacuum is
utilized to reach a target vacuum on the EVAP system. The FTP sensor is used by the engine ON EVAP
leak-check monitor to determine if the target vacuum necessary to carry out the leak-check on the EVAP
system has been reached. Once target vacuum on the EVAP system is achieved, the change in EVAP
system vacuum over a calibrated period of time determines if a leak exists.

The Engine Off Natural Vacuum (EONV) EVAP leak-check monitor is executed:

 once the engine ON EVAP leak-check monitor is completed and the key is turned OFF. The EONV
EVAP leak-check monitor determines if a leak is present when the naturally occurring change in the fuel
tank pressure or vacuum does not exceed a calibrated limit during a calibrated amount of time. A
separate, low-power consuming microprocessor in the PCM manages the EONV leak-check. The engine
OFF EVAP leak-check monitor is executed by the individual components of the enhanced EVAP system.

System (IDS) hardware, or equivalent scan tool

Phase 1 - Leak Verification

1. Run the EVAP Test with the scan tool.

NOTE: Some small leaks may not be detected using the EVAP Test. If the system
has passed the test but a leak is still suspected, then proceed to Phase 2.

2. If the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) system failed the EVAP Test, then proceed to Phase 2.

Phase 2 - System Leak Check

1. Disconnect the upper vapor tube-to-EVAP canister purge valve quick connect coupling. For additional
information, refer to FUEL SYSTEM - GENERAL INFORMATION article.
2. Connect the VACUTEC Smoke Machine Fuel Evaporative Emission System Tester to the upper EVAP
canister purge valve fitting. For additional information, refer to the manufacturer's instructions.

NOTE: The battery ground cable was previously disconnected in the vapor tube
quick connect coupling procedure.

3. Connect the battery ground cable. For additional information, refer to BATTERY, MOUNTING AND
CABLES article.

NOTE: In the scan tool, the EVAP canister purge valve is referred to as the EVAP
vapor management valve.

4. Open the EVAP canister purge valve with the scan tool.
5. Close the canister vent solenoid with the scan tool.
6. Carefully turn the fuel tank filler cap counterclockwise until the thread disengages and position aside.

NOTE: If smoke does not exit the fuel tank filler pipe neck area after the system is
pressurized, open the canister vent solenoid with the scan tool to allow
the air to purge. Once smoke is seen at the canister vent solenoid, close
the canister vent solenoid with the scan tool.

7. Introduce smoke from the VACUTEC Smoke Machine Fuel Evaporative Emission System Tester into the
EVAP system and verify that smoke is exiting the fuel tank filler pipe neck area. For additional
information, refer to the manufacturer's instructions.
8. Install the fuel tank filler cap once smoke is observed exiting the fuel tank filler pipe neck area.

9. Continue to enter smoke into the system for 60 seconds to obtain pressure.
10. Press and release the remote start button in intervals of 15 seconds ON and 15 seconds OFF while
checking for exiting smoke.
11. Use the halogen light provided with the VACUTEC Smoke Machine Fuel Evaporative Emission System
Tester to follow the EVAP system path and look for smoke exiting at the source of the leak(s).
12. Repair any leaks as necessary.
13. Repeat the leak test until the system passes.
