Emission Gontrol System
Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) System
Description
The Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) system is
designed to prevent blow-by gas from escaping to the
atmosphere. The PCV valve contains a spring-loaded
plunger. When the engine starts. the plunger in the PCV
valve is lifted in orooonion to intake manifold vacuum and
the blow-by gas is drawn directly into the intake manifold.

1. Check the PCV hoses and connections for leaks and
croggrng.

2.At idie, make sure there is a clicking sound from the
PCV valve when the hose between PCV valve and
intake manilold in lightly pinched with your fingers
or plters.
lf there is no clicking sound, check the PCV valve
grommet for cracks and damage. lf the grommet is
OK, reolace the PCV valve and recheck.
Gently pinch here.

Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Controls
,J
a
DescriDtion
The evaporative emission controls are designed to minimize the amount of luel vapor escaping to the atmosphere. Thesystem consists of the following components:
A. EvaporativeEmission lEVAPlControlCanister
An EVAP control canister is used for the temporary storage of fuel vapor until the fuel vapor can be purged from theEVAP control canister into the engine and burned.
B. Vapol Purge Control System
EVAP control canister purging is accomplished by drawing fresh air through the EVAP control canister and into a pon
on the intake manifold. The purging vacuum is controlled by the EVAP purge control solenoid valve.
C. Fuel Tank Vapor Control System
When fuel vapor pressure in the fuel tank is higher than the set value of the EVAP two way valve, the varve opens anoregulates the flow of fuel vapor to the EVAP control canister.
