17EMISSION CONTROL

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION REV: 09/95 Evaporative emission control system - pre
advanced EVAPS.
The system is designed to prevent harmful fuel vapour
from escaping to the atmosphere. The system
consists of a vapour separator tank, connected to the
fuel tank and located between the body inner and
outer panels on the right hand side of the vehicle near
the rear wheel arch. An adsorbtion canister,
containing activated charcoal, is positioned in the
engine compartment attached to the front right
valance. The two components are connected by a
pipe running the length of the chassis.
A Pressure relief to atmosphere.
B From fuel tank to separator.
C To adsorbtion canister.
D Pressure relief valve.
E Pressure relief valve.
F Shut-off valve.
G "Speed Fit" connectors.A pressure relief valve is fitted in the hose which is
open to atmosphere. This valve acts as a safety valve
should a build-up of pressure occur in the system, for
example if a hose became blocked or kinked. The
volume of vapour emitted, in such an instance, would
be acceptable.
A pressure relief valve is also fitted in the hose
connected to the adsorbtion canister and releases
vapor to the canister when the pressure in the
separator reaches between 5 and 7 Kpa.
In the top of the separator a shut-off valve is
incorporated in the vapor exit port to prevent the
possible presence of any liquid fuel being transmitted
to the adsorbtion canister should the vehicle roll over.
The adsorbtion canister, which is connected by a hose
to the plenum chamber, absorbs and stores the fuel
vapour from the fuel tank while the engine is not
running. When the engine is started, the vapour is
purged from the canister by air drawn through an
orifice in the base of the canister and by the influence
of vacuum at the top. The vapour drawn into the
plenum chamber through a solenoid operated purge
valve is finally burnt in the combustion chambers.
The purge valve, which is attached to the adsorbtion
canister support bracket, is controlled by the Engine
Control Module ECM which determines the most
emission acceptable time at which purging should
take place. This will normally be at engine speeds
above idle and when the vehicle is in motion. A signal
from the ECM to the purge valve operates the
solenoid and opens the valve to purge the canister of
fuel vapour.

17EMISSION CONTROL
8
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION ADD: 09/95 System operation
The system is designed to prevent fuel vapour
escaping to atmosphere, and consists of four roll-over
valves fitted internally in the fuel tank, connected to
the liquid/vapour separator by a nylon line. The
separator is mounted to the side of the filler neck. An
EVAP canister is positioned in the engine
compartment mounted on the right front side valance.
The liquid/vapour separator and EVAP canister are
connected by a nylon line which runs the length of the
chassis.
Pressure/vacuum relief valves are incorporated into
the fuel filler cap and are designed to protect the fuel
tank from permanent deformation in the event of
system pressure or vacuum exceeding the system
operating parameters. There are no other relief or
one-way valves in the system.
A vent line flow restrictor known as an anti-trickle fill
valve is fitted to the filler pipe in the line between the
tank and EVAP canister. The function of this valve is
to prevent overfilling the tank by trickling fuel in,
thereby preserving the vapour space in the tank to
allow for fuel expansion during hot weather.
The valve achieves this by blocking the vent line
during the fuel filling process. The valve is operated
by the action of inserting the filler gun so that when
the fuel in the tank reaches the level of the filling
breather, flow cut off occurs due to fuel filling the filler
pipe.During normal vehicle operation and when the engine
is switched off, the venting system between the fuel
tank and EVAP canister is open to allow the free
passage of vapour.
The EVAP canister, which is connected by a nylon
hose to the plenum chamber, absorbs and stores the
fuel vapour from the fuel tank when the engine is not
running. With the engine running, vapour is purged
from the EVAP canister by allowing outside air to be
drawn through the EVAP canister vent solenoid and
link pipe by the influence of manifold vacuum to the
EVAP canister purge connection on the canister.
Filter pads are fitted above and below the charcoal
and in the EVAP canister vent solenoid to prevent the
ingress of foreign matter into the purge line.
The EVAP canister purge valve, which is fitted in the
line from the EVAP canister to the plenum, is
controlled by the ECM which determines the most
emission acceptable time at which purging should
take place. This will normally be at engine speeds
above idle and when the vehicle is in motion.
The EVAP canister vent solenoid is mounted on the
side of the EVAP canister bracket and is connected to
the EVAP canister by a length of large bore hose. The
ECVS is controlled by the ECM and is normally open.
The function of the ECVS is to block the air intake
side of the EVAP canister. When the system receives
an ECM signal the valve closes; this allows the
system leak check to take place. The leak check only
occurs when pre-determined vehicle operating
conditions are met.

FAULT DIAGNOSIS FUEL PRESSURE CHECK
In order to check the fuel pressure it is necessary to
first depressurise the fuel system as follows:
WARNING: Under normal operating
conditions the multiport fuel injection
system is pressurised by a high pressure
fuel pump, operating at up to 2.3 to 2.5 bar. When
engine is stationary pressure is maintained within
system. To prevent pressurised fuel escaping and
to avoid personal injury it is necessary to
depressurise multiport fuel injection system
before any service operations are carried out.
If vehicle has not been run there will be a small
amount of residual pressure in fuel line. The
depressurising procedure must still be carried out
before disconnecting any component within the
fuel system.
The spilling of fuel is unavoidable during this
operation. Ensure that all necessary precautions
are taken to prevent fire and explosion.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION REV: 09/95 Fuel pressure regulator
The fuel pressure regulator is located at the rear of
the engine in the fuel rail. It consists of a fuel inlet,
outlet, vacuum port and internal diaphragm.
When the engine is under high manifold depression,
the applied vacuum sucks the diaphragm of its seat,
allowing fuel to return to the tank, resulting in a lower
fuel pressure. This is necessary because the high
depression will try to suck the fuel from the injector,
resulting in overfuelling if the pressure remained
constant. Failure will result in a rich mixture at idle but
normal at full load, or a rich mixture resulting in engine
flooding, or a weak mixture. Although the fault will not
illuminate the MIL, faults caused by the failure may be
indicated.Relay module
The engine management system employs a relay
module, which houses the main relay and the fuel
pump relay.
Main relay
The main relay supplies the power feed to the ECM
with a tap off to feed the fuel injectors (8 amps) and
air flow sensor (4 amps). This relay is controlled by
the engine management ECM. This enables the ECM
to remain powered up after ignition is switched off.
During this 'ECM power down routine' the ECM
records all temperature readings and powers the
stepper motor to the fully open position. Failure of this
relay will result in the engine management ECM not
being switched on resulting in engine not starting due
to absence of fuel and ignition.
Fuel pump relay
The fuel pump relay is fed from the ignition relay and
controlled by the engine management ECM. The relay
is activated in ignition key position 2 to prime the fuel
system for a period of time controlled by the ECM.
Failure of this relay will result in no fuel pressure.
Inertia switch
The inertia switch isolates the power supply to the fuel
pump in the event of sudden deceleration. The inertia
switch is located in the engine compartment. It is reset
by depressing the central plunger at the top of the
switch.
