FUEL SYSTEM (DFI) 3-139
Evaporative Emission Control System
The Evaporative Emission Control System routes fuel va-
pors from the fuel system into the running engine or stores
the vapors in a canister when the engine is stopped. Al-
though no adjustments are required, a thorough visual in-
spection must be made at the intervals specified by the Pe-
riodic Maintenance Chart.
Parts Removal/Installation
WARNING
Gasoline is extremely flammable and can be ex-
plosive under certain conditions. Turn the ignition
switch OFF. Do not smoke. Make sure the area is
well-ventilated and free from any source of flame
or sparks; this includes any appliance with a pilot
light.
CAUTION
If gasoline, solvent, w ater or any other liquid enters
the canister, the canister’s vapor absorbing capac-
ity is greatly reduced. If the canister does become
contaminated, replace it with a new one.
•
To prevent the gasoline from flowing into or out of the
canister, hold the separator perpendicular to the ground.
•
Connect the hoses according to the diagram of the sys-
tem. Make sure they do not get pinched or kinked.
