PINPOINT TEST C: DTC P1450 EXCESSIVE VACUUM DETECTED IN
THE FUEL TANK Tester to the fuel filler pipe.
z Pressurize the EVAP
system to 6.47 to 6.97 kPa
(26 to 28 inches H
2 O).
z Does the pressure drop
immediately? No
INSTALL new fuel tank vapor line(s). REPEAT pinpoint test
Step B5 to verify the repair. CARRY OUT the evaporative
emission system leak test. REFER to
Evaporative Emission System Leak Test in this section. If the system passes the
leak test, CARRY OUT the evaporative emission repair
verification drive cycle. REFER to Evaporative Emission Repair Verification Drive Cycle in this section.
B6 CHECK FOR FAILED EVAP
CANISTER PURGE VALVE OR
FUEL TANK PRESSURE
SENSOR z
Use the recorded results
from the PCM DTCs.
z Are DTC codes P0455 and
P1443 present? Yes
INSTALL a new EVAP canister purge valve. REFER to
Evaporative Emission Canister Purge Valve
in this section.
CARRY OUT the evaporative emission system leak test.
REFER to Evaporative Emission System Leak Test in this
section. If no leak is detected, CARRY OUT the evaporative
emissions repair verification drive cycle. REFER to
Evaporative Emission Repair Verification Drive Cycle in this
section.
No
INSTALL a new fuel tank pressure sensor. REFER to Fuel Tank Pressure Sensor in this section. CARRY OUT the
evaporative emission system leak test. REFER to
Evaporative Emission System Leak Test in this section. If
the system passes the leak test, CARRY out the
evaporative emission repair verification drive cycle. REFER
to Evaporative Emission Repair Verification Drive Cycle in
this section. Test Step Result / Action to Take
NOTE:
Condition P1450 DTC set: more than - 1.79 kPa (-7.2 inches H

FUEL TANK VACUUM z
Check for kinks or bends in the fuel vapor hoses
and tubes.
z Visually check the EVAP canister inlet port,
canister vent solenoid filter or outlet hose for
contamination or foreign material.
z Check the canister vent solenoid for blockage or
contamination.
z Is a concern with a hose, tube, connection or
component visually evident? Yes
REMOVE any contamination or foreign
material around fuel vapor hoses and
tubes. REPAIR the hoses, tubes or
components as necessary. After all
visual concerns are repaired, GO to
C2
.
No
GO to C2 .
C2 CHECK FOR BLOCKAGE BETWEEN EVAP
TEST PORT AND CANISTER VENT SOLENOID z
Disconnect and plug the EVAP return tube at the

10. If the vehicle stalls in (D) or manual 2 at idle with vehicle at a stop, move the transmission range
selector lever to manual 1 position. If the vehicle stalls, see torque converter operation
concerns. For additional information, refer to Diagnosis By Symptom in this section. If the
vehicle does not stall in (D), refer to Diagnosis By Symptom in this section.
11. If the vehicle exhibits a vibration during the road test, complete the Road Test Evaluation Form. This form will aid the technician in determining the source of the vibration.
NOTE: The following is a list of common vehicle concerns that have been misdiagnosed as torque
converter clutch shudder. For diagnosis of the following items refer to the appropriate sections of the
workshop manual and the Powertrain Control/Emissions Diagnosis (PC/ED) manual.
zspark plugs - check for cracks, high resistance or broken insulators
z plug wires
z fuel injector - filter may be plugged
z fuel contamination - poor engine performance
z EGR valve - valve may let in too much exhaust gas and cause engine to run lean
z vacuum leak - engine will not get correct air/fuel mixture
z MAP/MAF sensor - incorrect air/fuel mixture
z HO2S sensor - too rich/lean air/fuel mixture
z fuel pressure - may be too low
z engine mounts - loose/damaged mounts can cause vibration concerns
z axle joints - check for vibration Torque Converter Road Evaluation Form
