BR/BEEMISSIONS CONTROL 25 - 9
EMISSIONS CONTROL (Continued)

After passing the leak detection phase of the test,
system pressure is maintained by turning on the
LDP's solenoid until the purge system is activated.
Purge activation in effect creates a leak. The cycle
rate is again interrogated and when it increases due
to the flow through the purge system, the leak check
portion of the diagnostic is complete.
The canister vent valve will unseal the system
after completion of the test sequence as the pump
diaphragm assembly moves to the full travel position.
Evaporative system functionality will be verified by
using the stricter evap purge flow monitor. At an
appropriate warm idle the LDP will be energized to
seal the canister vent. The purge flow will be clocked
up from some small value in an attempt to see a
shift in the 02 control system. If fuel vapor, indicated
by a shift in the 02 control, is present the test is
passed. If not, it is assumed that the purge system is
not functioning in some respect. The LDP is again
turned off and the test is ended.
MISFIRE MONITOR
Excessive engine misfire results in increased cata-
lyst temperature and causes an increase in HC emis-
sions. Severe misfires could cause catalyst damage.
To prevent catalytic convertor damage, the PCM
monitors engine misfire.
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) monitors
for misfire during most engine operating conditions
(positive torque) by looking at changes in the crank-
shaft speed. If a misfire occurs the speed of the
crankshaft will vary more than normal.
FUEL SYSTEM MONITOR
To comply with clean air regulations, vehicles are
equipped with catalytic converters. These converters
reduce the emission of hydrocarbons, oxides of nitro-
gen and carbon monoxide. The catalyst works best
when the Air Fuel (A/F) ratio is at or near the opti-
mum of 14.7 to 1.
The PCM is programmed to maintain the optimum
air/fuel ratio of 14.7 to 1. This is done by making
short term corrections in the fuel injector pulse width
based on the O2S sensor output. The programmed
memory acts as a self calibration tool that the engine
controller uses to compensate for variations in engine
specifications, sensor tolerances and engine fatigue
over the life span of the engine. By monitoring the
actual fuel-air ratio with the O2S sensor (short term)
and multiplying that with the program long-term
(adaptive) memory and comparing that to the limit,
it can be determined whether it will pass an emis-
sions test. If a malfunction occurs such that the PCM
cannot maintain the optimum A/F ratio, then the
MIL will be illuminated.
CATALYST MONITOR
To comply with clean air regulations, vehicles are
equipped with catalytic converters. These converters
reduce the emission of hydrocarbons, oxides of nitro-
gen and carbon monoxide.
Normal vehicle miles or engine misfire can cause a
catalyst to decay. A meltdown of the ceramic core can
cause a reduction of the exhaust passage. This can
increase vehicle emissions and deteriorate engine
performance, driveability and fuel economy.
The catalyst monitor uses dual oxygen sensors
(O2S's) to monitor the efficiency of the converter. The
dual O2S's sensor strategy is based on the fact that
as a catalyst deteriorates, its oxygen storage capacity
and its efficiency are both reduced. By monitoring
the oxygen storage capacity of a catalyst, its effi-
ciency can be indirectly calculated. The upstream
O2S is used to detect the amount of oxygen in the
exhaust gas before the gas enters the catalytic con-
verter. The PCM calculates the A/F mixture from the
output of the O2S. A low voltage indicates high oxy-
gen content (lean mixture). A high voltage indicates a
low content of oxygen (rich mixture).
When the upstream O2S detects a lean condition,
there is an abundance of oxygen in the exhaust gas.
A functioning converter would store this oxygen so it
can use it for the oxidation of HC and CO. As the
converter absorbs the oxygen, there will be a lack of
oxygen downstream of the converter. The output of
the downstream O2S will indicate limited activity in
this condition.
As the converter loses the ability to store oxygen,
the condition can be detected from the behavior of
the downstream O2S. When the efficiency drops, no
chemical reaction takes place. This means the con-
centration of oxygen will be the same downstream as
upstream. The output voltage of the downstream
O2S copies the voltage of the upstream sensor. The
only difference is a time lag (seen by the PCM)
between the switching of the O2S's.
To monitor the system, the number of lean-to-rich
switches of upstream and downstream O2S's is
counted. The ratio of downstream switches to
upstream switches is used to determine whether the
catalyst is operating properly. An effective catalyst
will have fewer downstream switches than it has
upstream switches i.e., a ratio closer to zero. For a
totally ineffective catalyst, this ratio will be one-to-
one, indicating that no oxidation occurs in the device.
The system must be monitored so that when cata-
lyst efficiency deteriorates and exhaust emissions
increase to over the legal limit, the MIL will be illu-
minated.

Operation for information.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - AIR INJECTION
PUMP
The air injection system and air injection
pump is not completely noiseless.Under normal
conditions, noise rises in pitch as engine speed
increases. To determine if excessive noise is fault of
air injection system, disconnect accessory drive belt
and temporarily operate engine.Do not allow
engine to overheat when operating without
drive belt.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to lubricate the air injec-
tion pump. Oil in the pump will cause rapid deteri-
oration and failure.

ing new filter.
(2) Install filter into housing.
(3) Install lid to filter housing (snaps on).
(4) Position filter housing to fender.

ONE WAY CHECK VALVE
DESCRIPTION
For air injection systems:A pair of one-way
check valves is used with the air injection system.
The check valves (Fig. 1) are located on each of the
air injection downstream tubes.
OPERATION
Each one-way check valve has a one-way dia-
phragm which prevents hot exhaust gases from back-
ing up into the air injection hose and air injection
pump. The check valve will protect the system if the
air injection pump belt fails, an air hose ruptures or
exhaust system pressure becomes abnormally high.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - ONE-WAY CHECK
VALVE
The one-way check valves are not repairable. To
determine condition of valve, remove the rubber air
tube from the inlet side of each check valve. Start the
engine. If exhaust gas is escaping through the inlet
side of check valve, it must be replaced.
REMOVAL
(1) Remove the hose clamp at inlet side of valve.
(2) Remove hose from valve.
(3) Remove valve from catalyst tube (unscrew).To
prevent damage to catalyst tube, a backup
wrench must be used on the tube.
INSTALLATION
(1) Install valve to catalyst tube. Tighten to 33
N´m (25 ft. lbs.) torque.
(2) Install hose and hose clamp to valve.

EVAPORATIVE EMISSIONS
DESCRIPTION - EVAP SYSTEM
The evaporation control system prevents the emis-
sion of fuel tank vapors into the atmosphere. When
fuel evaporates in the fuel tank, the vapors pass
through vent hoses or tubes into the two charcoal
filled evaporative canisters. The canisters tempo-
rarily hold the vapors. The Powertrain Control Mod-
ule (PCM) allows intake manifold vacuum to draw
vapors into the combustion chambers during certain
operating conditions.
All 3.9L/5.2L/5.9L/8.0L gasoline powered engines
use a duty cycle purge system. The PCM controlsvapor flow by operating the duty cycle EVAP purge
solenoid. Refer to Duty Cycle EVAP Canister Purge
Solenoid for additional information.
When equipped with certain emissions packages, a
Leak Detection Pump (LDP) will be used as part of
the evaporative system. This pump is used as part of
OBD II requirements. Refer to Leak Detection Pump
in this group for additional information.
NOTE: The hoses used in this system are specially
manufactured. If replacement becomes necessary, it
is important to use only fuel resistant hose.
