PUMPING ACTION
Action : During portions of this test, the PCM uses
the reed switch to monitor diaphragm movement.
The solenoid is only turned on by the PCM after the
reed switch changes from open to closed, indicating
that the diaphragm has moved down. At other times
during the test, the PCM will rapidly cycle the LDP
solenoid on and off to quickly pressurize the system.
During rapid cycling, the diaphragm will not move
enough to change the reed switch state. In the state
of rapid cycling, the PCM will use a fixed time inter-
val to cycle the solenoid. If the system does not pass
the EVAP Leak Detection Test, the following DTCs
may be set:
²P0442 - EVAP LEAK MONITOR 0.0409LEAK
DETECTED
²P0455 - EVAP LEAK MONITOR LARGE LEAK

mounting bracket (Fig. 9). This is located near the
front of the fuel tank. The LDP and LDP filter are
replaced (serviced) as one unit.
(1) Raise and support vehicle.
(2) Carefully remove hose at LDP filter.
(3) Remove LDP filter mounting bolt and remove
from vehicle.
(4) Carefully remove vapor/vacuum lines at LDP.
(5) Disconnect electrical connector at LDP.
(6) Remove LDP mounting bolt and remove LDP
from vehicle.
INSTALLATION
The LDP and LDP filter are attached to the front
of the EVAP canister mounting bracket. The LDP
and LDP filter are replaced (serviced) as one unit.
(1) Install LDP to mounting bracket. Refer to
Torque Specifications.
(2) Install LDP filter to mounting bracket. Refer to
Torque Specifications.
(3) Carefully install vapor/vacuum lines to LDP,
and install hose to LDP filter.The vapor/vacuum
lines and hoses must be firmly connected.

(1) Clean out intake manifold opening.
(2) Check condition of 2 o-rings on PCV valve.
(3) Apply engine oil to 2 o-rings.
(4) Place PCV valve into intake manifold and
rotate 90 degrees clockwise for installation.
VACUUM LINES
DESCRIPTION
A vacuum schematic for emission related items can
be found on the vehicles VECI label. Refer to Vehicle
Emission Control Information (VECI) Label for label
location.
VAPOR CANISTER
DESCRIPTION
Two, maintenance free, EVAP canisters are used.
Both canisters are mounted into a two-piece support
bracket located near the front of the fuel tank (Fig.
23).
OPERATION
Two, maintenance free, EVAP canisters are
used.The EVAP canisters are filled with granules of
an activated carbon mixture. Fuel vapors entering
the EVAP canisters are absorbed by the charcoal
granules.
Fuel tank pressure vents into the EVAP canisters.
Fuel vapors are temporarily held in the canisters
until they can be drawn into the intake manifold.
The duty cycle EVAP canister purge solenoid allows
the EVAP canisters to be purged at predetermined
times and at certain engine operating conditions.
REMOVAL
Two, maintenance free, EVAP canisters are used.
Both canisters are mounted into a two-piece support
bracket located near the front of the fuel tank (Fig.
23).
(1) Raise and support vehicle.
(2) Remove fuel tubes/lines at each EVAP canister.
Note location of tubes/lines before removal for easier
installation.
(3) Remove lower support bracket (Fig. 24).
(4) Remove mounting nuts at top of each canister
(Fig. 24).
(5) Remove each canister from upper support
bracket.
INSTALLATION
(1) Place each canister into upper support bracket
and install nuts. Refer to Torque Specifications.
(2) Install lower support bracket. Refer to Torque
Specifications.
(3) Carefully install vapor/vacuum lines.The
vapor/vacuum lines and hoses must be firmly
connected. Also check the vapor/vacuum lines
at the LDP, LDP filter and EVAP canister purge
solenoid for damage or leaks. If a leak is
present, a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) may
be set.

PCV VALVE (Continued)

The NVLD device is designed with a normally open
vacuum switch, a normally closed solenoid, and a
seal, which is actuated by both the solenoid and a
diaphragm. The NVLD is located on the atmospheric
vent side of the canister. The NVLD assembly may
be mounted on top of the canister outlet, or in-line
between the canister and atmospheric vent filter. The
normally open vacuum switch will close with about 19
H2O (0.25 KPA) vacuum in the evaporative system.
The diaphragm actuates the switch. This is above the
opening point of the fuel inlet check valve in the fill
tube so cap off leaks can be detected. Submerged fill
systems must have recirculation lines that do not
have the in-line normally closed check valve that pro-
tects the system from failed nozzle liquid ingestion,
in order to detect cap off conditions.
The normally closed valve in the NVLD is intended
to maintain the seal on the evaporative system dur-
ing the engine off condition. If vacuum in the evapo-
rative system exceeds 39to 69H2O (0.75 to 1.5 KPA),
the valve will be pulled off the seat, opening the seal.
This will protect the system from excessive vacuum
as well as allowing sufficient purge flow in the event
that the solenoid was to become inoperative.
The solenoid actuates the valve to unseal the can-
ister vent while the engine is running. It also will be
used to close the vent during the medium and large
leak tests and during the purge flow check. This sole-
noid requires initial 1.5 amps of current to pull the
valve open but after 100 ms. will be duty cycled down
to an average of about 150 mA for the remainder of
the drive cycle.
Another feature in the device is a diaphragm that
will open the seal in the NVLD with pressure in the
evaporative system. The device will9blow off9at
about 0.59H2O (0.12 KPA) pressure to permit the
venting of vapors during refueling. An added benefit
to this is that it will also allow the tank to9breathe9
during increasing temperatures, thus limiting the
pressure in the tank to this low level. This is benefi-
cial because the induced vacuum during a subse-
quent declining temperature will achieve the switch
closed (pass threshold) sooner than if the tank had to
decay from a built up pressure.
The device itself has 3 wires: Switch sense, sole-
noid driver and ground. It also includes a resistor to
protect the switch from a short to battery or a short
to ground. The NGC utilizes a high-side driver to
energize and duty-cycle the solenoid.REMOVAL
