1 - Activated Charcoal Canister Solenoid Valve 2 - PCV Valve

3 - Activated Charcoal Canister Assembly 4 - Fuel Tank Assembly

Emission control system recovers and burns fuel vapor to prevent the vapor in fuel tank from being
discharged into the atmosphere. It monitors the oxygen content in exhaust gas, so as to guarantee the
maximum efficiency of catalytic converter assembly in converting the HC, CO and NOx in exhaust gas.
Activated charcoal canister assembly plays an important role in the emission control system and it is used to
absorb and filter moisture and fuel vapor. Fresh air enters the bottom of activated charcoal canister assembly
while fuel vapor enters the top of activated charcoal canister through pipe. When engine stops operating, the
fuel vapor and fresh air will be stored in the activated charcoal canister assembly. When canister solenoid
valve opens, the fuel vapor will enter intake manifold to burn.
Oxygen sensor consists of upstream oxygen sensor and downstream oxygen sensor. Upstream oxygen
sensor is installed on exhaust manifold assembly, and downstream oxygen sensor is installed on main
catalytic converter assembly. Oxygen sensor can detect the oxygen content in exhaust gas, and determine
whether combustible air-fuel mixture is completely burnt out or not, so as to guarantee the maximum
efficiency of catalytic converter assembly in converting the HC, CO and NOx in exhaust gas.

DIAGNOSIS & TESTING

Leakage Inspection
Visually check that hoses, connections and gaskets have no cracks, leaks or damage.

CAUTION

 Removal of engine oil dipstick, filler cap, PCV hose and other components or other problems in them
may cause the engine to run improperly.
 Air suction caused by disconnections, looseness or cracks in intake system pipes related to throttle
assembly will result in engine failure or abnormal operation. Replace the parts as necessary.

Activated Charcoal Canister Inspection

1. Close port C and blow compressed air into port A, check
that air flows from port B. If result is not as specified, B
replace the canister. C
2. Close port C and blow compressed air into port B, check
A
09 that air flows from port A. If result is not as specified,
replace the canister.

RM16090020

Fuel Tank Cap Assembly Inspection

1. Visually check that fuel tank cap assembly is not deformed or damaged.
2. If result is not as specified, replace the fuel tank cap assembly.
