    • If you find any of the above conditions, repair as necessary.
    2. IMPORTANT: Refer to the J 41413-200  operation manual for detailed instructions. See Special Tools .
  2. Remove the fuel fill cap. Connect the GE-41415-50  to the fuel tank filler neck. Connect the J 41413-200  to the GE-41415-50  . See Special Tools .
  3. Calibrate the J 41413-200  Flow Meter to the correct leak orifice for the vehicle. See Special Tools .
  4. Command the EVAP vent solenoid closed with a scan tool.
    5. IMPORTANT: Larger volume fuel tanks and/or those with lower fuel levels may require several minutes for the floating indicator to stabilize.
  5. Activate the J 41413-200  and compare the flow meter's stable floating indicator position to the red flag. See Special Tools . The floating indicator should be below the red flag.
    • If the floating indicator is above the red flag, test for a leak in the EVAP system.
