Evaporative Emission (EVAPI Control
System
Refer to the System Diagram to see the functional
layout of the system.
EVAP Canister
The EVAP canister temporarily stores fuel vapor from
the fuel tank until it can be purged back into the engine
and burned.
EVAP Canister Purge Valve
When the engine coolant temperatu re is below 149'F(65'C), the ECM turns off the EVAP canister purge valve
which cuts vacuum to the EVAP canister.
FuelTank Pressure (FTP) Sensor
The FTP sensor converts fueltank absolute pressure
into an electrical inputto the ECM during the EVAP leak
cnecK.
SENSOR UNIT
EVAP Two Way Valve and EVAP Eyp8s Solenoid
Valve
The EVAP two way valve is installed between the fuel
tank and the EVAP canister line.
The EVAP two way valve sends fuel vapor to the EVAP
canister corresponding to the pressure inside the tuel
tank. lt also relieves excess vacuum in the tank by
allowing fresh air to be drawn into the tank through the
EVAP canister.
The EVAP bypass solenoid valve opens to bypass the
two way valve during the EVAP leak check.

Evaporative Emission (EVAPI Control Diagram
The EVAP controls minimize the amount of fuel vapor escaping to the atmosphere. Vapor from the fuel tanK rstemporarily stored in the EVAP canister until it can be purged from the canister into the engine and burneo.
. The EVAP canister is purged by drawing fresh air through it and into a port on the intake manifold.The purging vacuum is controlled by the EVAP canister purge valve, which operates whenever engine cootanttemperature is above 149'F (65"C).
