- Install the Miller Tool (8404) Evaporative Emission Leak Detector (EELD). According to the instructions in the pervious DTC table.
- Set the SMOKE/AIR control switch to AIR.
- Insert the testers AIR supply tip (clear hose) into the appropriate calibration orifice on the testers control panel (based on DTC leak size).
- Press the remote SMOKE/AIR start button.
- Position the Red flag on the air flow meter so it is aligned with the indicator ball.
- When the calibration is complete, release the remote button. The EELD is now calibrated the flow meter in liters per minute to the size leak indicated by the DTC set in the PCM.
- Install the Service Port Adapter (8404-14) on the vehicles service port.
- Connect the AIR supply hose from the EELD to the service port.
- Press the remote button to activate AIR flow.
- Larger volume fuel tanks, lower fuel levels or if the vehicle is equipped with a Flow Management Valve may indicate high flow and will require 4 to 5 minutes to fill.
- Compare the flow meter indicator ball reading to the Red flag.
- ABOVE the Red flag indicates a leak present.
- BELOW the Red flag indicates a sealed system.
- If the indicator ball shows a leak present, perform the smoke test indicated in the previous test and identify the leak and repair. Perform this verification test when the repair is complete. Did the indicator ball indicate the a leak is present? If yes, repeat the DTC test to identify the leak and repair. If no, repair is complete.
