Evaporative Emission Control Canister: Description and Operation

DESCRIPTION

Evaporative Canister

The canister is attached to the frame under the driver's seat.

OPERATION

All vehicles use a sealed, maintenance free, evaporative (charcoal) canister.

Fuel tank vapor vents into the canister. The canister temporarily holds the fuel vapors until intake manifold vacuum draws them into the
combustion chamber. The canister proportional purge solenoid allows the canister to be purged at predetermined intervals and engine conditions.
