16. Connect the connectors to the fuel injectors, the IAT sensor ('97 - 98 models), and the EVAP purge control solenoid
valve {'97 - 98 models).
Coat a new O-ring with clean engine oil, and install the resonator chamber ('99 - 00 models).
Turn the ignition switch ON (ll), but do not operate the starter. After the fuel pump runs for approximately two seconds,
the fuef pressure in the fuel line rises. Repeat this two or three times, then check whether there is any fuel leakage.

Intake Air System
System Description
The system supplies air for all engine needs. lt consists of the intake air pipe, Air Cleaner, intake air duct, Throttle Body
(TB), ldle Air Control (lAC) Valve, fast idle thermo valve, and intake manifold. A resonator in the intake air pipe provides
additional silencing as air is drawn into the system.

DescriDtion
This system evaluates the catalyst's capacity by means of the HO2S (Primary and Secondary) output during stable driving
conditions. lf deterioration has been detected during three consecutive driving cycles, the MIL comes on and DTC P0420 will
be stored.
NOTE: lf some of the DTCS listed below are stored at the same time as DTC P0420, troubleshoot those DTCS first. then
troubleshoot DTC P0420.

ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE ABOVE 154"F (68'C)
Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Controls
Description:
The evaporative emission controls are designed to minimize the amount of fuel vapor escaping to the atmosphere. The
system consists of the following components:
A. Evaporative Emission (EVAPI Control Canister
An EVAP control canister is used for the temporary storage of fuel vapor until the luel vapor can be purged from the
EVAP control canister into the enqine and burned.
B. Vapor Purge ConirolSystem
EVAP control canister purging is accomplished by drawing fresh air through the EVAP control canister and into a pon
on the intake manifold. The purging vacuum is controlled by the EVAP purge control solenoid valve.
C. Fuel Tank Vapor Control System
When fuel vapor pressure in the fuel tank is higher than the set value of the EVAP two way valve, the valve opens and
regulates the flow ot fuel vapor to the EVAP control canister.
