Note:
1. It is very important that the liquid gaskets listed above or their exact equivalent be used on the
vehicle.
2. Be careful to use the specified amount of liquid gasket.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions at all times.
3. Be absolutely sure to remove all lubricants and moisture from the connecting surfaces before
applying the liquid gasket.
The connecting surfaces must be perfectly dry.
4. LOCTITE 515 and LOCTITE 518 harden upon contact with a metal surface.
Do not apply LOCTITE 515 or LOCTITE 518 between two metal surfaces having a clearance of
greater than 0.25 mm (0.01 in). Poor adhesion will result.

3.5L ENGINE DRIVEABILITY AND EMISSIONS 6E-61
GENERAL DESCRIPTION FOR
EVAPORATIVE EMISSION SYSTEM




3 1 2
(1) Purge Solenoid Valve
(2) From Canistor to Purge Solenoid
(3) From Purge Solenoid to Intake








1
2
(1) Canistor
(2) Air Separator


The basic evaporative emission control system used on
the charcoal canister storage method. The method
transfers fuel vapor from the fuel tank to an activated
carbon (charcoal) storage devise to hold the vapors
when the vehicle is not operating.
The canister is located on the rear axle housing by the
frame cross-member.
When the engine is running, the fuel vapor is purged
from the carbon element by intake air flow and
consumed in the normal combustion process.

EVAP Control System
The evaporate emission canister purge is controlled by
a duty solenoid valve that allows manifold to purge the
canister when following operating conditions are met.
Purge solenoid valve operating condition at idle
condition:

Engine speed is below 1000rpm.

Vehicle speed is below 3km/h.

Engine coolant temperature is more than 80C.

Intake air temperature is more than 10C.

In closed loop operation.
All above conditions are met for 4 seconds.

Purge solenoid valve operating condition at other than
idle condition:

Engine speed is below 6375rpm.

Vehicle speed is more than 14km/h.

Engine coolant temperature is more than 60C.
All above conditions are met for 4 seconds.


Results of Incorrect Operation
Poor idle, stalling and poor driveability can be caused
by:

Inoperative purge solenoid.

Damaged canister.

Hoses split, cracked and/or not connected to the
proper tubes.
Evidence of fuel loss or fuel vapor odor can be caused
by:

Liquid fuel leaking from fuel lines, or fuel pump.

Cracked or damaged canister.

Disconnected, misrouted, kinked, deteriorated o
r
damaged vapor hoses, or control hoses.
If the solenoid is always open, the canister can purge to
the intake manifold at all times. This can allow extra fuel
at idle or during warm-up, which can cause rough o
r
unstable idle, or too rich operation.
If the solenoid is always closed, the canister can
become over-loaded, resulting in fuel odor.

0A-6 GENERAL INFORMATION
IDENTIFICATION



CHASSIS NUMBER
The chassis number is stamped on the right-hand side of the
chassis side member under the right door.




VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION PLATE
The vehicle identification plate is attached to the upper face of
the radiator sill in the engine compartment.




BODY AND OPTION IDENTIFICATION
PLATE
The body and option plate shows body style, body serial
number, paint and trim colour combination, paint number,
engine transmissions, axle ratio options and built date. The
built date is defined as 'the date of manufacture' by the
calendar month and year in which the body shell and power
train sub-assemblies are co-joined or moved from the
production line.
