The evaporative emission control system prevents
fuel vapors generated in the fuel tank from escapin g
into the atmosphere.
Fuel vapors from the fuel tank flow through the
fuel tank pressure control valve and vapor pipe/hos e
to be stored temporarily in the EVAP canister.
When the vehicle is in operation, fuel vapors stored
in the EVAP canister flow through the EVAP purge
solenoid and purge port and go into the intake
manifold plenum to be sent to the combustion cham-
ber.
When the engine coolant temperature is low or
when the intake air quantity is small (when the
module brings the purge
OFF state to shut off the fuel vapor flow to the
intake manifold plenum. This does not only insure
the when the cold or running
under low load but also stabilize the emission leve l.
Furthermore, an EVAP ventilation solenoid is locate
between the EVAP canister and the atmosphere
in order to carry out OBD-II EVAP leak monitoring.
This solenoid is normally off, but turns on during
OBD-II EVAP leak monitoring to shut off the flow
of air into the EVAP canister from the atmosphere.
Also, fuel vent valve is provided at fuel filler tu be
to prevent fuel from to a fuel tank.
