Emission Control System
Positive Crankcase Ventilation IPCVI System
Descripiion
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 proportion to intake manifold vacuum
and the blow-by gas is drawn directly into the intake
manifold.

lrcpection
1. Check the PCV hoses and connections for leaks and
clogging.
2. At idle, make sure there is a clicking sound from the
PCV valve when the hose between the PCV valve
and the intake manifold is lightly pinched with your
fingers or pliers,

lf there is no clicking sound, check the PCV valve
grommet for cracks and damage. If the grommet is
OK, replace the PCV valve and recheck.

Evaporative Emission (EVAPI Controls
Description
The evaporative emission controls are designed to minimize the amount of fuel vapor escaping to the atmosphere. The
system consists of the foliowing components:
A. Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Control Canisto]
An EVAP control canister is used for the temporary storage of fuel vapor until the fuel vapor can be purged from the
EVAP control canister into the engine and burned.
B. Vapor Purge Control System
EVAP control canister purging is accomplished by drawing fresh air through the EVAP control canister and into a port
on the intake manifold. The purging vacuum is controlled by the EVAP purge control solenoid valve.

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 valve opens and
regulates the flow of fuel vapor to the EVAP control canister.
Onboard Refueling Vapor Recovery (ORVRI System {'99 - 00 models}
During refueling. the oRVR {onboard Refueling Vapor Recovery) vent shut valve opens with the pressure in the fuel
tank. and feeds the fuel vapor to the EVAP control canister.
