- The evaporative emission control system is employed to prevent evaporative fuel from being discharged into ambient atmosphere. This system includes a canister, purge control solenoid valve, fuel cut valve, their connecting lines, etc.
- Gasoline vapor evaporated from the fuel in the fuel tank is introduced into the canister through the evaporation line, and is absorbed on activated carbon in it. A fuel cut valve is also incorporated on the fuel tank line.
- The purge control solenoid valve is controlled by the ECM and provides optimal purge control according to the engine condition.
- A pressure control solenoid valve incorporated in the fuel tank evaporation line controls the pressure/vacuum in the fuel tank according to the pressure/vacuum sensed by the fuel tank pressure sensor.
