Symptom:
P-1486 EVAP LEAK MONITOR PINCHED HOSE FOUND
When Monitored and Set Condition:
P-1486 EVAP LEAK MONITOR PINCHED HOSE FOUND
When Monitored: Amb temp bet 4 deg C (40deg F) & 32 deg C (90deg F), & coolant w/in
±12 deg C (10deg F) of amb. If PCM suspects pinch, no fault until runs evap purge flow
mon. Purge flow monitored w/eng temp >76 deg C (170deg F), engine in closed loop, idle 2
min, no low fuel, MAP <15.7 in. merc, & baro alt <8000 ft.
Set Condition: LDP must pass stricter evap system test first. No air flow through the
evaporative system is detected by the evap monitor.
POSSIBLE CAUSES
FUEL TANK TO EVAP CANISTER HOSE PINCHED
LDP PRESSURE HOSE BLOCKAGE
PURGE SOLENOID TO EVAP CANISTER HOSE PINCHED
LEAK DETECTION PUMP BLOCKAGE
EVAPORATIVE CANISTER BLOCKAGE LDP SIDE

TEST ACTION APPLICABILITY
1 At this point in the diagnostic test procedure, you have determined that all of the
engine electrical systems are operating as designed; therefore, they are not the cause
of the driveability problem.
The following additional items should be checked as possible mechanical causes of
the problem:
ENGINE VACUUM - must be at least 13 inches in neutral
ENGINE VALVE TIMING - must be within specifications
ENGINE COMPRESSION - must be within specifications
CAMSHAFT LOBES - check for abnormal wear
CRANK SENSOR PICK-UP - check crankshaft slots for debris/deterioration
ENGINE EXHAUST SYSTEM - must be free of any restrictions
ENGINE PCV SYSTEM - must flow freely
ENGINE DRIVE SPROCKETS - must be properly positioned
TORQUE CONVERTER STALL SPEED - must be within specifications
POWER BRAKE BOOSTER - no internal vacuum leaks
FUEL - must be free of contamination
FUEL INJECTOR - plugged or restricted injector; control wire not connected to
correct injector
Note: If you came to this test from the oxygen sensor, and the rich or lean
condition is not caused by one of the first items above, replace the power-
train control module and perform TEST VER-2A (Road Test Verification).
Always look for any Technical Service Bulletins that may relate to the problem.
Did you come from an Oxygen Sensor rich or lean condition test?All
