FAULT DIAGNOSIS REV: 09/95 TESTING EVAPORATIVE EMISSION CONTROL -
PRE ADVANCED EVAPS
The following pressure test procedure is intended to
provide a method for ensuring that the system does
not leak excessively and will effectively control
evaporative emissions.
Equipment required.
Nitrogen cylinder (compressed air may be used to
pressure the system when there has NEVER been
fuel present in the fuel or evaporative control
systems).
Water manometer (0 - 30" H2O or more).
Pipework and a "T" piece.
Method.
1.Ensure that there is at least two gallons of fuel in
the petrol tank unless there has never been any
fuel in the system.
2.Disconnect, at the adsorption canister, the pipe
to the vapour separator.
3.Connect this pipe to the nitrogen cylinder and
the water manometer using the "T" piece.
4.Pressurize the system to between 26.5 and 27.5
inches of water, allow the reading to stabilize,
then turn off the nitrogen supply.
5.Measure the pressure drop within a period of 2
minutes 30 seconds. If the drop is greater than
2.5 inches of water the system has failed the
test. Note that a fully sealed system will show a
slight increase in pressure.
6.Should the system fail the test, maintain the
pressure in the system and apply a soap
solution round all the joints and connections until
bubbles appear to reveal the source of the leak.
7.Repeat the test and if successful, dismantle the
test equipment and reconnect the pipe to the
adsorption canister.LEAK DETECTION PROCEDURE - ADVANCED
EVAPS
1.Connect TestBook to the vehicle and confirm
that the fault code(s) displayed relate to an
EVAP system fault.
2.Examine components in fuel and EVAP system
for damage or poorly connected joints.
3.Repair or replace components to rectify any
faults found, then reset the Check Engine light
using TestBook.
4.Carry out Drive Cycle,
See Drive Cycle -
Advanced EVAPS
5.Using TestBook confirm that the Evaporative
Loss Control (ELC) Inspection and Maintenance
(IM) flag has cleared. This procedure should
confirm that the ELC test was carried out during
the drive cycle and that the fault was cured.
6.If the IM flag is still shown, use TestBook to
interrogate the engine management system to
ascertain which of the following situations exists:
·If a fault code is shown then further investigation
is required, proceed to the next step.
·If the IM flag is still shown, but no faults are
indicated the conditions for the ELC check have
not been met and the drive cycle must be
repeated.
7.Connect the Leak Detection/EVAP Diagnostic
Station to the vehicle and carry out the
procedures given in the operating instructions
supplied with the equipment.
8.Rectify faults indicated by the Leak
Detection/EVAP Diagnostic Station and return to
step 4.

3.Start engine and allow to idle for 2 minutes.
4.Perform 2 light accelerations (0 to 35 mph with

6.Perform 2 hard accelerations (0 to 55 mph with
heavy pedal pressure).
7.Cruise at 60 mph for 5 minutes.
8.Cruise at 50 mph for 5 minutes.
9.Cruise at 35 mph for 5 minutes.
10.Allow engine to idle for 2 minutes.
11.Connect TestBook and check for fault codes.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION OPERATION
Diesel engines operate by compression ignition. The
rapid compression of air in the cylinder during the
compression cycle heats the injected fuel, causing it
to self ignite. During cold starting, automatically
controlled glow plugs assist in raising the temperature
of the compressed air to ignition point.
A cold start advance unit advances the injection timing
to further assist starting. Idle quality is improved by
the high idle setting.
The engine is supplied with pre-compressed air by a
single stage turbocharger.
Exhaust gases passing over a turbine cause it to
rotate, driving a compressor mounted on the turbine
shaft. Air drawn from the cold air intake passes, via
the air cleaner, to the turbocharger where it is
compressed. The compressed air passes to the
cylinders via an intercooler, which reduces the
temperature of the compressed air, increasing its
density.
Fuel is drawn from the tank by a mechanical lift pump
and passes to the injection pump via a filter. In
addition to removing particle contamination from the
fuel, the filter incorporates a water separator, which
removes and stores both bound and unbound water.
The injection pump meters a precisely timed, exact
quantity of fuel to the injectors in response to throttle
variations, injection timing varying with engine speed.
Any excess fuel delivered to the injection pump is not
injected, passing back to the tank via the fuel return
line.
Fuel is injected in a finely atomised form into a
pre-combustion chamber in the cylinder head where it
ignites. The burning fuel expands rapidly into the main
combustion chamber, creating extreme turbulence
which mixes the burning fuel thoroughly with the
compressed air, providing complete combustion.
Cold Starting is assisted by glow plugs, a cold start
advance unit and a high idle setting.Glow plugs
Glow plug operation is controlled by a timer unit, start
relay and resistor. When the ignition is turned on the
timer unit is energised, the glow plugs start to operate
and a warning light on the dashboard illuminates,
remaining illuminated until the glow plugs are
automatically switched off.
The length of time the glow plugs will operate is
dependent on under bonnet temperature, which is
monitored by a sensor located in the timer unit.
Starting the engine results in the power supply to the
glow plugs passing through the resistor, which
reduces their operating temperature. The glow plugs
are cut out either by the temperature sensor in the
timer, or by a microswitch on the injection pump which
operates when the throttle is depressed.
Cold start advance
The cold start advance unit is connected to the engine
cooling system via hoses. It contains a temperature
sensitive element which is retracted when cold and
pulls the advance lever, via cable, towards the rear of
the pump against spring pressure. As coolant
temperature rises, the cold start element expands
releasing tension on the cable and allowing spring
pressure to move the advance lever forwards.
