Q: What is the Fuel Evaporative Emissions Control (EVAP) System,Canister Purge Valve and Vapor Canister?
A: The EVAP system absorbs fuel vapors from the tank and releases them into the engine intake. It utilizes a canister filled with activated charcoal and a two-way valve to vent fuel vapors. The PCM operates a purge control solenoid to open a diaphragm valve in the canister. A leak detection monitor system is also in place to detect any leaks. Component replacement involves removing and installing the EVAP canister, purge control solenoid, and leak detection pump.
