VACUUM LINES
DESCRIPTION
A vacuum schematic for emission related items can
be found on the VECI label. Refer to Vehicle Emis-
sion Control Information (VECI) Label for label loca-
tion.
VAPOR CANISTER
DESCRIPTION
A maintenance free, EVAP canister is used on all
gasoline powered models. The EVAP canister is
located near the left/front corner of the fuel tank.
OPERATION
The EVAP canister is filled with granules of an
activated carbon mixture. Fuel vapors entering the
EVAP canister are absorbed by the charcoal granules.
The canister serves two functions: as a temporary
fuel vapor storage point while refueling the vehicle
for the ORVR system, as a temporary vapor storage
point while the engine is running.
Fuel tank pressure vents into the EVAP canister.
Fuel vapors are temporarily held in the canister until
they can be drawn into the intake manifold. The duty
cycle EVAP canister purge solenoid allows the EVAP
canister to be purged at predetermined times and at
certain engine operating conditions.
Refer to ORVR for additional information.
REMOVAL
The EVAP canister is located near front of fuel
tank and next to left/rear spring. (Fig. 13).
(1) Raise vehicle.
(2) Disconnect vacuum hoses/lines at EVAP canis-
ter. Note location of lines before removal.
(3) Remove EVAP canister and mounting bracket
assembly from body (2 bolts).
(4) Remove canister-to-mounting bracket bolt.
(5) Slide 2 canister mounting pins from mounting
bracket (Fig. 14).
INSTALLATION
(1) Slide 2 canister mounting pins into mounting
bracket (Fig. 14).
(2) Install canister-to-mounting bracket bolt.
(3) Position canister and bracket assembly to body.
(4) Install 2 mounting bracket bolts. Tighten to 47
N´m (35 ft. lbs.) torque.
(5) Connect vacuum hoses/lines at EVAP canister.
(6) Lower vehicle.

FASTENER IDENTIFICATION
DESCRIPTION
The SAE bolt strength grades range from grade 2
to grade 8. The higher the grade number, the greater
the bolt strength. Identification is determined by the
line marks on the top of each bolt head. The actual
bolt strength grade corresponds to the number of linemarks plus 2. The most commonly used metric bolt
strength classes are 9.8 and 10.9. The metric
strength class identification number is imprinted on
the head of the bolt. The higher the class number,
the greater the bolt strength. Some metric nuts are
imprinted with a single-digit strength class on the
nut face. Refer to the Fastener Identification and
Fastener Strength Charts (Fig. 1) and (Fig. 2).

VEHICLE EMISSION CONTROL
INFORMATION (VECI) LABEL
DESCRIPTION
All models have a Vehicle Emission Control Infor-
mation (VECI) Label. DaimlerChrysler permanently
attaches the label in the engine compartment (Fig.
4). The label cannot be removed without defacing
label information and destroying label.
The label contains the vehicle's emission specifica-
tions and vacuum hose routings. All hoses must be
connected and routed according to the label.
The label also contains an engine vacuum sche-
matic. There are unique labels for vehicles built for
sale in the state of California and the country of
Canada. Canadian labels are written in both the
English and French languages.
The VECI label contains the following:
²Engine family and displacement
²Evaporative family
²Emission control system schematic
²Certification application
²Engine timing specifications (if adjustable)
²Idle speeds (if adjustable)
²Spark plug and gap
VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION
NUMBER
DESCRIPTION
The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) plate is
located on the lower left A-pillar and is visible
through the windshield (Fig. 5). The VIN contains 17
characters that provide data concerning the vehicle.
Refer to the VIN decoding chart to determine the
identification of a vehicle.
The Vehicle Identification Number is also
imprinted on the:
²Vehicle Safety Certification Label.
²Frame rail.
To protect the consumer from theft and possible
fraud the manufacturer is required to include a
Check Digit at the ninth position of the Vehicle Iden-
tification Number. The check digit is used by the
manufacturer and government agencies to verify the
authenticity of the vehicle and official documenta-
tion. The formula to use the check digit is not
released to the general public.
