Evaporative E
missions - Evaporative Emissions
Description an
d Operation
To reduce the emission of fuel vapour, th e fuel tank is vented to atmosphere through activated charcoal adsorption canister
(s) which collects the fuel droplets. The ch arcoal is periodically purged of fuel when the EVAP Canister Purge Valve opens
the vapour line between the canister(s) and the air intake induct ion elbow. This action allows manifold depression to draw
air through the canister atmospheric vent, taking up the deposited fuel from the charcoal adsorber and burning the resulting
fuel vapour in the engine.
The EVAP Canister Purge Valve is controlled by the engine management system ECM. Purging is carried out in accordance
with the engine management fu eling strategy (see below).
The fuel tank vapour outlet is via a removeable flange assemb ly on the top surface of the tank. The vapour storage canister
or canisters are fitted on the underside of the vehicle below the rear seats.
There are three variants of the evaporativ e system. All systems use the charcoal adsorber storage canisters and purge valve
and operate as described above. The specific features of each system are described below. The evaporative systems are
designated as :

7—Vacuum
control connection to EVAP valve
Thi s
system uses a single charcoal canister with a pressure
control valve between the canister and the fuel tank vapour
outlet. A vacuum control pipe is connecte d from the engine intake induction elbow to the pressure control valve. The vapour
outlet from the fuel tank is taken via a safety rollover valve fitted to the re moveable flange at the top of the tank.
With the engine stopped, the pressure control valve is closed, maintaining a slight positive pre ssure in the tank : any further
increase in pressure causes the valve to open and release vapour to the canister.
When the engine is running, manifold depr ession (via the vacuum control pipe) holds the pressure control valve open. Air is
drawn into the tank to maintain atmospheric pressure as fuel is used and vapourised fuel is deposited in the charcoal
canister.
Canister purge operation is as described in Evaporative Emissions Control.

Evaporative Flang
e Assembly
The ru nning loss
system has the following features :
a
normall
y open pressure control valve is fi
tted at the lefthand side of the tank.
two charcoal
canisters are connected in series to reduce th
e concentration of fuel in vapour vented to atmosphere.
a t
ank pressure sensor and canister close
valve are fitted to allow the on-board di agnostic facility to test for leaks in
the fuel and evaporative system.
The pressure control valve allows continuo us venting of vapour to the charcoal canisters during normal running but prevents
fuel entering the vent line duri ng refueling. Fuel vapour from the tank passes through the valve to the lefthand canister and
a third pipe connects the valve to the fill er neck. When refueling, the difference in pressure betw een the tank interior and
the open filler neck causes the valve to cl ose, shutting off the vapour vent line. Wh en the fuel cap is replaced, the pressures
are equalised and the pressure control valve opens the vent line to the canisters.
The canister close valve is a solenoid operated device controlled by the ECM. The valve is normally open and is closed only
during the leak test sequence.
The fuel pressure sensor is fitted to th e evaporative loss flange and provides a volt age to the ECM which is proportional to
