EVAP (EVAPORATION) CONTROL SYSTEM GENERAL
INFORMATION
The function
of the
EVAP control system
is to
pre­
vent
the
emissions
of
gasoline vapors from
the
fuel
tank into
the
atmosphere. When fuel evaporates
in
the fuel tank,
the
vapors pass through vent hoses
or

tubes
to a
carbon filled EVAP canister. They
are

temporarily held
in the
canister until they
can be

drawn into
the
intake manifold when
the
engine
is

running.
The vapors
are
drawn into
the
engine
at
idle
as

well
as off
idle. This system
is
called
a
Bi-level Purge
System where there
is a
dual source
of
vacuum
to re­

move fuel vapor from
the
EVAP canister. The EVAP canister
is a
feature
on all
models
for

the storage
of
fuel vapors from
the
fuel tank.
The hoses used
in
this system
are
specially
manufactured.
If
replacement becomes neces­ sary,
it is
important
to use
only fuel resistant
hose.

PRESSURE
RELIEF/ROLLOVER VALVE
These vehicles
are
equipped with
a
combination
pressure relief
and
rollover valve. This dual function valve will relieve fuel tank pressure
and
also prevent
fuel flow through
the
fuel tank vent hoses
in the
event
of an
accidental vehicle rollover. The valve incorporates
a
pressure relief mechanism
that releases fuel tank pressure when
the
pressure increases above
the
calibrated sealing value. Refer
to

the Fuel Tank section
of
Group
14,
Fuel Systems
for

removal
and
installation procedures.

EVAP CANISTER
A sealed, maintenance free, EVAP canister
is
used
on
all
vehicles.
The
canister
is
mounted
in the en­
gine compartment
on the
right side wheel well
(Fig.
1).
The
EVAP canister
is
filled with granules
of an

activated carbon mixture. Fuel vapors entering
the

EVAP canister
are
absorbed
by the
charcoal gran­
ules.
Fuel tank pressure vents into
the
EVAP canister.
Fuel vapors
are
temporarily held
in the
canister
un­

til they
can be
drawn into
the
intake manifold.
The
EVAP canister purge solenoid allows
the
EVAP can­ ister
to be
purged
at
predetermined times
and at
cer­
tain engine operating conditions.
Refer
to the
Component Removal/Installation sec­
tion
of
this group
for
replacement procedures.

EVAP
Canister Location

EVAP CANISTER PURGE SOLENOID
Vacuum
for the
EVAP canister
is
controlled
by the

EVAP canister purge solenoid
(Fig. 2). The
solenoid
is operated
by the
powertrain control module (PCM).
The
PCM
regulates
the
solenoid
by
switching
the

ground circuit
on and off
based
on
engine operating conditions. When energized,
the
solenoid prevents
vacuum from reaching
the
EVAP canister. When
not
energized,
the
solenoid allows vacuum
to
flow
through
to the
EVAP canister. During warm-up
and for a
specified time period
af­

ter
hot
starts,
the PCM
grounds
the
EVAP canister purge solenoid causing
it to
energize. This will pre­
vent vacuum from reaching
the
EVAP canister
valve. When
the
engine reaches
an
operating temper­ ature
of
approximately 27°C (80°F)
and a
time delay
interval
of
about
100
seconds
has
occurred,
the PCM

removes
the
ground
to
solenoid.
The
de-energized
so­
lenoid allows vacuum
to
flow
to the
EVAP canister and purge fuel vapors through
the
intake manifold. The EVAP canister purge solenoid will also
be en­

ergized during certain idle conditions
in
order
to up­

date
the
fuel delivery calibration. Refer
to the
Component Removal/Installation sec­
tion
of
this group
for
replacement procedures.

4 PCV Valve/Hose—Typical
A closed engine crankcase breather/filter, with a
hose connecting it to the air filter housing, provides
the source of air for system.
The PCV system operates by engine intake mani­
fold vacuum (Fig. 5). Filtered air is routed into the
crankcase through the air filter hose and crankcase
breather/filter. This forces crankcase vapors through
the PCV valve. It is then drawn into a passage in the intake manifold. Here it becomes part of the cali­
brated air/fuel mixture to be consumed in the com­ bustion chamber. The PCV system constantly ventilates the crankcase to help prevent sludge for­
mation and vapors from entering the atmosphere.
POSITIVE CRANKCASE VENTILATION (PCV) VALVE The PCV valve contains a spring loaded plunger.
This plunger meters the amount of crankcase vapors
routed into the combustion chamber based on intake
manifold vacuum.
When the engine is not operating or during an en­
gine popback, the spring forces the plunger back
against the seat. This will prevent vapors from flow­
ing through the valve (Fig. 6).
During periods of high manifold vacuum, such as
idle or cruising speeds, vacuum is sufficient to com­
pletely compress spring. It will then pull the plunger
to the top of the valve (Fig. 7). In this position there is minimal vapor flow through the valve.

Do not attempt to clean the old PCV valve.
(5) If the paper is not held against the opening in
cylinder head (valve) cover after new valve is in­ stalled, the PCV valve hose may be restricted and
must be replaced. The passage in the intake manifold
must also be checked and cleaned. To clean the intake manifold fitting, turn a 1/4
inch drill (by hand) through the fitting to dislodge
any solid particles. Blow out the fitting with shop air. If necessary, use a smaller drill to avoid remov­
ing any metal from the fitting.

ENGINES
The crankcase breather/filter (Fig. 12) is located on
the cylinder head (valve) cover. It must be kept clean and lubricated. At the recommended interval, remove
the filter and wash it thoroughly in kerosene or sim­ ilar solvent. Lubricate or wet the filter by inverting
it and filling with SAE 30 engine oil. Filter must
then be thoroughly drained. More frequent service
may be necessary for vehicles operated extensively on short run, stop and go or extended engine idle ser­

vice.
The filter must be replaced at correct intervals. Re­
fer to Lubrication and Maintenance, Group 0 in this service manual. 8925-28

GAS
RECIRCULATION
(EGR)
SYSTEMS
GENERAL INFORMATION The EGR system reduces oxides of nitrogen (NOx)
in the engine exhaust and helps prevent spark
knock. This is accomplished by allowing a predeter­
mined amount of hot exhaust gas to recirculate and
dilute the incoming fuel/air mixture. This dilution
reduces peak flame temperature during combustion.
The system consists of an intake manifold mounted
EGR valve (Fig. 1) and connecting hoses. The vac­
uum to the EGR is controlled by the electric EGR
transducer (EET) (Figs. 1 and 2). The EET is a dual
electric/vacuum function switch. It is controlled by
engine vacuum and the powertrain control module (PCM).
Fig. 1 EGR System—Gas Powered Engines
EGR OPERATION The electric exhaust gas recirculation transducer
(EET) is a back pressure transducer and an electric
vacuum solenoid combined into a single unit (Figs. 1 and 2). The vacuum solenoid portion of the EET re­
ceives its electrical signal from the powertrain con­
trol module (PCM). Using this signal, the solenoid regulates the vacuum flowing through to the trans­ ducer portion of the EET. The back pressure trans-

ducer measures the amount of exhaust gas back
pressure on the exhaust side of the EGR valve. It
then varies the strength of the vacuum signal ap­
plied to the EGR valve. The transducer uses this
back pressure signal to provide the correct amount of exhaust gas recirculation under all conditions.
The vacuum supply for the EGR valve is controlled
by the EET. The electrical solenoid portion of the EET is controlled by the powertrain control module (PCM). The PCM monitors engine coolant tempera­
ture and other operating conditions to determine
when EGR operation is desired. Refer to Open Loop/ Closed Loop Modes of Operation in Group 14, Fuel
Systems for a description of EGR solenoid operation
based on engine operating conditions.
If the electrical connector to the EET is dis­
connected or the electrical signal is lost, the
EGR valve will operate at all times. This results
in poor engine performance and reduced driveability
during certain operating conditions.
Vacuum flows between the solenoid portion of the
EET and the transducer portion of the EET. This
happens only when the solenoid is not electrically en­ ergized. The transducer is connected to the EGR
valve by a vacuum hose and a back pressure hose.
The transducer is controlled by exhaust back pres­ sure and is ported to the exhaust manifold through a
hose connecting it to the bottom of the EGR valve.
Vacuum will be supplied to the EGR valve and
EGR operation will begin when:

SYSTEMS
25 - 11 • The electrical solenoid portion of the EET is not
energized.
• The engine back pressure entering the EGR valve
inlet is strong enough to close the transducer bleed
valve.
If back pressure is not strong enough to close the
transducer bleed valve, the transducer will bleed off the vacuum preventing EGR operation.
When the electrical solenoid portion of the EET is
de-energized by the powertrain control module (PCM), vacuum flows to the transducer. The trans­
ducer is connected to the engine exhaust system by a small hose that connects to the base of the EGR
valve.
The vacuum section of the transducer is controlled
by exhaust system back pressure. When back pres­ sure is high enough it will close a bleed valve in the
transducer allowing vacuum to actuate the EGR
valve. If back pressure does not close the bleed valve,
vacuum will be bled off.
For more information, refer to Group 14, Fuel Sys­

tems.
Refer to the Component Removal/Installation sec­
tion of this group for EGR valve replacement proce­
dures.

EGR SYSTEM ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTICS
(CALIFORNIA VEHICLES
ONLY)

The powertrain control module (PCM) performs an
On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) check of the EGR system
on all California vehicles. The diagnostic system uses
the electric EGR transducer (EET) for the system

tests.

The OBD check activates only during selected en­
gine/driving conditions. When the conditions are met,
the PCM energizes the EET solenoid to disable the EGR. The PCM checks for a change in the oxygen sensor signal. If the air-fuel mixture goes lean, the
PCM will attempt to enrichen the mixture. The PCM
registers a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) if the EGR system has failed or degraded. After registering a

DTC,
the PCM turns the malfunction indicator
lamp (MIL) on. (The malfunction indicator lamp was formerly referred to as the check engine lamp). The
malfunction indicator lamp indicates the need for im­
mediate service.
If a malfunction is indicated by the malfunction in­
dicator lamp and a DTC for the EGR system was set,
check for proper operation of EGR system. Use the
following: System Test, EGR Gas Flow Test and EGR
Diagnosis Chart.
If the EGR system tests properly, check the system
using the DRB II scan tool. For use of the DRB II,
refer to the appropriate Powertrain Diagnostics Pro­ cedure service manual. EGR SYSTEM SERVICE
A malfunctioning EGR system can cause engine
spark knock, sags or hesitation, rough idle, engine
stalling and poor driveability. To be sure of proper
operation of the EGR system, inspect all passages for
blockage. Check moving parts for binding. Inspect
the complete system for leaks. Replace system com­ ponents or hoses that are leaking.
Inspect all hose connections between throttle body,
intake manifold, EGR valve and EGR purge solenoid.
Replace any vacuum harness components that are
leaking or damaged. Refer to EGR Control System Test and EGR Gas
Flow Test to check EGR System operation.
EGR GAS FLOW TEST (1) Disconnect hose from EGR valve and connect a
hand vacuum pump to EGR valve nipple. Apply a
minimum of 12 inches vacuum the valve.
(2) The engine should now idle roughly or stall. If
this occurs, the valve is performing correctly. Proceed
to Electric EGR Transducer Test.
(3) If the engine idle speed did not change, remove
the EGR valve and inspect the valve and the exhaust passage in the manifold for blockage. Repair as nec­
essary. If blockage is not present, replace the EGR
valve.
ELECTRIC EGR TRANSDUCER (EET)

TESTING ELECTRIC SOLENOID PORTION OF TRANSDUCER
(1) Bring the engine to normal operating tempera­

ture.
Operate at idle speed. Test the EET as follows: (2) Check vacuum at EET vacuum source. Discon­
nect the hose and attach a vacuum gauge to it.
(3) Vacuum should be a minimum of 15 inches:
• If vacuum is low, check the line for kinks, twists
or a loose connection at vacuum connector or intake
manifold.
• If vacuum is correct, remove gauge. Connect the
vacuum line and proceed to next step. (4) Check EET operation using the appropriate
Powertrain Diagnostic Procedures service manual.
Refer to this manual for use of the DRB II scan tool and repair EET as necessary.

TESTING VACUUM PORTION
OF
TRANSDUCER
(1) Disconnect the EET vacuum lines, back pres­
sure line and electrical connector. Remove trans­
ducer.
(2) Plug the EET EGR valve port.
(3) Apply 1-2 pounds air pressure to exhaust back
pressure port. Air pressure can be supplied with a
hand operated air pump or compressed air (regulated
to correct psi).
(4) Apply a minimum of 12 inches of vacuum to
vacuum supply port.
Replace the EET if it will not hold vacuum.
