Rollover Valve: Description and Operation

PURPOSE

The fuel check valve prevents fuel leaks should the car suddenly roll over. 

LOCATION

The valve is connected to the fuel vapor line (between the canister and overfill limiter) and is mounted on the fuel tank.

OPERATION

Under normal conditions, the gasoline vapor passage in the valve is opened, but if roll-over occurs at least one of two balls closes the fuel passage
preventing fuel leaks.
