Evaporative Control System

System consists of an activated charcoal filled canister to temporarily store hydrocarbon vapors, a purge solenoid valve and a 2-way valve to prevent excessive pressure or vacuum in fuel tank. This system minimizes fuel tank vapor release into the atmosphere. The PCM allows purge flow (using purge solenoid valve) under the most effective conditions.
