Fuel Evaporation System: Maintenance

Every 5 years or 50,000 miles, check fuel evaporation system for leaks and obstructions. Disconnect both ends of fuel vapor vent line and blow line clean with compressed air. Check operation of overfill limiter and replace all vapor/vacuum hoses and charcoal canister. Check filler cap packing for deterioration and filler tube sealing surface.
