This system controls flow rate of fuel vapor from the EVAP canis-
ter. The opening of the vapor by-pass passage in the EVAP canis-
ter purge volume control solenoid valve changes to control the flow
rate. The EVAP canister purge volume control solenoid valve
repeats ON/OFF operation according to the signal sent from the
ECM. The opening of the valve varies for optimum engine control.
The optimum value stored in the ECM is determined by consider-
ing various engine conditions. When the engine is operating, the
flow rate of fuel vapor from the EVAP canister is regulated as the
air flow changes.
SEF337U
COMPONENT DESCRIPTIONNEEC0248S02The EVAP canister purge volume control solenoid valve uses a
ON/OFF duty to control the flow rate of fuel vapor from the EVAP
canister. The EVAP canister purge volume control solenoid valve
is moved by ON/OFF pulses from the ECM. The longer the ON
pulse, the greater the amount of fuel vapor that will flow through the
valve.

Always drive vehicle at a safe speed.
NOTE:
If ªDTC Confirmation Procedureº has been previously conducted,
always turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 5 seconds before
conducting the next test.

This system automatically controls engine idle speed to a specified
level. Idle speed is controlled through fine adjustment of the
amount of air which bypasses the throttle valve via IACV-AAC
valve. The IACV-AAC valve repeats ON/OFF operation according
to the signal sent from the ECM. The camshaft position sensor
detects the actual engine speed and sends a signal to the ECM.
The ECM then controls the ON/OFF time of the IACV-AAC valve
so that engine speed coincides with the target value memorized in
ECM. The target engine speed is the lowest speed at which the
engine can operate steadily. The optimum value stored in the ECM
is determined by taking into consideration various engine
conditions, such as during warm up, deceleration, and engine load
(air conditioner, power steering and cooling fan operation).
SEF040E
COMPONENT DESCRIPTIONNEEC1594S02The IAC valve-AAC valve is moved by ON/OFF pulses from the
ECM. The longer the ON pulse, the greater the amount of air that
will flow through the valve. The more air that flows through the
valve, the higher the idle speed.
