place or refilling/draining fuel until the output voltage condition
of the ªFUEL LEVEL SEº meets within the range above and
leave the vehicle for more than 1 hour. Then start from step 1).
3) Turn ignition switch ªOFFº and wait at least 5 seconds.
4) Turn ignition switch ªONº.
5) Select ªEVAP VERY/SML LEAK P1441º of ªEVAPORATIVE
SYSTEMº in ªDTC WORK SUPPORTº mode with CONSULT-
II.
Follow the instruction displayed.
6) Make sure that ªOKº is displayed.
If ªNGº is displayed, refer to ªDiagnostic Procedureº, EC-529.
NOTE:
IIf the engine speed cannot be maintained within the range
displayed on CONSULT-II screen, go to ªBasic
inspectionº, EC-101.
IMake sure that EVAP hoses are connected to EVAP canis-
ter purge volume control solenoid valve properly.
OVERALL FUNCTION CHECKNBEC0317S05With GST
Use this procedure to check the overall function of the EVAP very
small leak function. During this check, a 1st trip DTC might not be
confirmed.

6) Using mode 8 control the EVAP canister vent control valve
(close) and vacuum cut valve bypass valve (open).
7) Apply pressure and make sure the following conditions are
satisfied.
Pressure to be applied: 2.7 kPa (20 mmHg, 0.79 inHg)
Time to be waited after the pressure drawn in to the EVAP
system and the pressure to be dropped: 60 seconds and
the pressure should not be dropped more than 0.4 kPa (3
mmHg, 0.12 inHg)
If NG, go to diagnostic procedure, EC-529.
