DETERMINING SHIM THICKNESS
Shim thickness need be determined only if any of
the following parts are replaced:
²Transaxle case
²Output shaft
²Rear planetary annulus gear
²Output shaft gear
²Rear annulus and output shaft gear bearing
cones
²Overrunning clutch race cups
Refer to Bearing Adjustment Procedure at the rear
of this section, to determine proper shim thickness.
Check output shaft bearing turning torque,
using an inch-pound torque wrench. If turning
torque is 3 to 8 inch-pounds, the proper shim
has been installed.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION (Continued)

Immediately after a cold start, between predeter-
mined temperature thresholds limits, the three port
solenoid is briefly energized. This initializes the
pump by drawing air into the pump cavity and also
closes the vent seal. During non test conditions the
vent seal is held open by the pump diaphragm
assembly which pushes it open at the full travel posi-
tion. The vent seal will remain closed while the
pump is cycling due to the reed switch triggering of
the three port solenoid that prevents the diaphragm
assembly from reaching full travel. After the brief
initialization period, the solenoid is de-energized
allowing atmospheric pressure to enter the pump
cavity, thus permitting the spring to drive the dia-
phragm which forces air out of the pump cavity and
into the vent system. When the solenoid is energized
and de energized, the cycle is repeated creating flow
in typical diaphragm pump fashion. The pump is con-
trolled in 2 modes:
Pump Mode:The pump is cycled at a fixed rate to
achieve a rapid pressure build in order to shorten the
overall test length.
Test Mode:The solenoid is energized with a fixed
duration pulse. Subsequent fixed pulses occur when
the diaphragm reaches the Switch closure point.
The spring in the pump is set so that the system
will achieve an equalized pressure of about 7.5º H20.
The cycle rate of pump strokes is quite rapid as the
system begins to pump up to this pressure. As the
pressure increases, the cycle rate starts to drop off. If
there is no leak in the system, the pump would even-
tually stop pumping at the equalized pressure. If
there is a leak, it will continue to pump at a rate rep-
resentative of the flow characteristic of the size of the
leak. From this information we can determine if the
leak is larger than the required detection limit (cur-
rently set at.040º orifice by CARB). If a leak is
revealed during the leak test portion of the test, the
test is terminated at the end of the test mode and no
further system checks will be performed.
After passing the leak detection phase of the test,
system pressure is maintained by turning on the
LDP's solenoid until the purge system is activated.
Purge activation in effect creates a leak. The cycle
rate is again interrogated and when it increases due
to the flow through the purge system, the leak check
portion of the diagnostic is complete.
The canister vent valve will unseal the system
after completion of the test sequence as the pump
diaphragm assembly moves to the full travel position.
Evaporative system functionality will be verified by
using the stricter evap purge flow monitor. At an
appropriate warm idle the LDP will be energized to
seal the canister vent. The purge flow will be clocked
up from some small value in an attempt to see a
shift in the 02 control system. If fuel vapor, indicatedby a shift in the 02 control, is present the test is
passed. If not, it is assumed that the purge system is
not functioning in some respect. The LDP is again
turned off and the test is ended.
Enabling Conditions for Systems with LDP
²Ambient Air Temperature
²Barometric Pressure
²Fuel level
²Engine Temperature
²No stalling
²Battery voltage
NON-LDP VEHICLESÐOn a vehicle without an
EVAP leak detection pump system, changes in short
term memory and movement in target IAC at idle or
idle speed change, are used to monitor the system.
There are two stages for this test.
Stage OneÐStage one is a non-intrusive test.
The PCM compares adaptive memory values between
purge and purge-free cells. The PCM uses these val-
ues to determine the amount of fuel vapors entering
the system. If the difference between the cells
exceeds a predetermined value, the test passes. If
not, then the monitor advances to state two.
Stage TwoÐOnce the enabling conditions are
met, the PCM de-energizes the Duty Cycle Purge
(DCP) solenoid. The PCM then waits until engine
RPM, Short Term Compensation and Idle Air Control
have all stabilized. Once stable, the PCM increments
the DCP solenoid cycle rate approximately 6% every
8 engine revolutions. If during the test any one of
three conditions occur before the DCP cycle reaches
100%, the EVAP system is considered to be opera-
tional and the test passes. These conditions are as
follows:
²RPM rises by a predetermined amount
²Short Term drops by a predetermined amount
²Idle Air Control closes by a predetermined
amount
When none of the previous conditions occur, the
test fails and the PCM increments a counter by one.
When the PCM runs the test three times during a
trip, and the counter has been incremented to three,
the monitor fails and a Freeze Frame is stored.
Enabling Conditions (Stage Two)ÐThe follow-
ing conditions must be met to enable the EVAP Mon-
itor (without LDP)
²Ambient Air Temperature
²Barometric Pressure
²Fuel level
²Engine Temperature
²Engine run time
²RPM stable
²MAP
²Generator, radiator fans, A/C clutch
Pending Conditions-With or Without LDPÐ
The EVAP Monitor is suspended and does not run,
