Fuel Tank Pressure Control Valve

Fuel tank pressure control valve is a spring controlled valve. When engine is running, vacuum is applied to valve and valve is opened. This allows vapors from fuel tank to vent to canister.

When engine is not running, valve closes. This causes fuel tank vapors to be vented through restriction in valve. This restriction is to retain most of fuel tank vapors in fuel tank.
