  Q: What is the purpose of the Canister Purge Valves and Vapor Canister on Chevrolet Tracker?

  A: The evaporative emission (EVAP) system prevents hydrocarbon release into the atmosphere by storing fuel vapor from the fuel system. Components include a charcoal canister, two-way check valve, fuel cap, and connecting lines. Vapors from the gas tank are stored in the canister, which vents via a solenoid valve in carbureted or fuel-injected models. On 2001 models with the On-Board Refueling Vapor Recovery (ORVR), the canister is beneath the vehicle near the fuel tank. Inspect the canister for damages and never wash it. Test airflow in both carbureted and fuel-injected models by blowing into ports. For carbureted models, ensure the vent solenoid valve allows air when the engine is off but restricts when on. Fuel-injected models' EVAP canister purge valve should show consistent resistance and proper airflow. Replace faulty components and label hoses during replacements. Installation is the reverse of removal.
