The fuel evaporative emissions control (EVAP) system plays a vital role in managing fuel vapors from the fuel tank, releasing them into the engine intake system during engine operation. Key components include the canister, which contains activated charcoal to absorb fuel vapors, the purge valve, vent valve, fuel tank pressure sensor, fuel tank, and various vapor and purge lines. Fuel tank vapor, after passing through a check valve, is directed to the charcoal canister, where the charcoal absorbs and stores the vapors. The PCM (Powertrain Control Module) opens the purge and vent valves under specific conditions, allowing fuel vapors from the canister to be drawn into the intake manifold and combustion chamber for consumption. The PCM regulates the vapor flow rate through the EVAP purge valve control solenoid, cycling it on and off, optimizing purge based on engine conditions. During cold start-up, the system performs a self-diagnostic check, creating a vacuum in the EVAP system to detect leaks, and the PCM monitors the fuel tank pressure sensor voltage for potential issues. The fuel tank pressure sensor, similar to a MAP sensor, supplies a signal voltage to the PCM that corresponds to the air pressure within the fuel tank. Component replacement procedures involve disconnecting quick-connect fittings, cleaning the area, and removing mounting bolts, hoses, and electrical connectors. The EVAP canister, purge valve, vent valve, and fuel tank pressure sensor can be replaced following specific removal and installation steps. It's important to note that the evaporative emissions control system is protected by a federally-mandated warranty.
