Emission Control System
Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCVI System
Description
The Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) system is
designed to prevent blow-by gas {rom escaping to the
atmosphsre. The PCV valve contains a spring-loadsd
plunger. When the Bngine starts, the plunger in the PCV
valve is lifted in proportion to intake manifold vacuum
and the blow-by gas is drawn directly into th€ intak€
manifold.

Insp€cdon
1. Check th€ PCV hos6s and connections tor lsaks and
clogging.
At idle, mak6 sur€ th6fe is a clicking sound from th6
PCV valve when the hose between rcV valve and
intake manifold in lightly pinched with your fingors
or oli€rs.
a lf thera is no clicking sound, ch6ck the PCV valve
grommet for cracks or damage. ll the grommet
is OK, reolace the PCV valve and recheck.

Evaporative Emission (EVAPI Controls
Da.cdptlon
Thg avaporstive omission controls are designed to minimize the smount of fusl vapor escaping to the atmosphero. The
system conaists ot the following compon€nts:
Evlporttly. Emlttbn (EVAPI Control Caniltot
An EVAP control canistor is used lor the temporary storage ot fuel vapor until the fuel vapor can be purged lrom
th€ EVAP control canister into the engin€ and burned.
vlpor hr]gG Cmt]ol Syst m
€VAp control canistgr puroing is accomplished by drawing fresh air through tho EVAP control canister and into a
pon on th6 throttl€ body. Th€ purging vacuum is controllsd by the EVAP purge control diaphragm valve end the
EVAP purge control solenoid valve.
C. Ft|.l Tmk Vlpor Control Systom
When fuel vapor prassure in the fuel tank is higher than the set v8lue of the EVAP two way v8lv6, th€ valve opens
and regulates the flow ol fuel vapor to the EVAP control canister.

fT-FITTING
Apply vacuum slowly and continuously while watch-
ing the gauge.
Vacuum should stabilize momentarilv at 5-15
mmHg (0.2-0.6 in. Hg).
a It vacuum stabilizes (valve opensl below5mmHg(O.2 in.Hg) or above I 5 mmHg (O.6 in.Hg), install
a new valve and retest.
Move vacuum pump hose from vacuum to pressure
titting, and move vacuum gauge hose trom vacuum
to oressure side as shown.
Pressure should stabilize at 1O-35 mmHg (0.4- 1 .4
in. Hg).
a lf p.essure momentarily stabilizes {valve opensl
at 1O-35 mmHg (O.4- 1.4 in.Hg), the valve is
oK.
a lf pressure stabilizes below 10 mmHg {O.4 in.Hg)
or above 35 mmHg (1 .4 in.Hgl, install a new valve
and retest.
