• New quick release connectors are fitted with a

checker tab that prevents improper fit. This
checker tab cannot normally be removed. When
the quick release connector is properly connected
to the connection point, the lock is released and
the checker tab comes off. Due to this, it can be
verified that the quick release connector is
completely connected.

PURGE SOLENOID VALVE FUNCTION [LF]

• Adjusts the amount of evaporative gas to be introduced to the intake air system.

PURGE SOLENOID VALVE CONSTRUCTION/OPERATION [LF]

E5U011618744N02

• Installed on the air hose.

• Consists of a coil, spring and plunger.

• Opens and closes the passage in the solenoid

valve according to the purge solenoid valve
control signal (duty signal) from the PCM to
control the amount of evaporative gas to be
introduced to the dynamic chamber according to
engine operation conditions.

• The signal sent from the PCM energizes the coil

and it becomes magnetized, pulling the plunger.
The passage between the ports opens when the
plunger is pulled, and evaporative gas is
introduced to the intake air system according to
intake manifold vacuum.

FUEL-FILLER CAP FUNCTION [LF]

E5U011642250N01

• If the evaporative gas passage is closed for some reason, the fuel filler cap prevents the generation of positive

or negative pressure in the fuel tank, protecting it from deformation.

End Of Sie

FUEL-FILLER CAP CONSTRUCTION/OPERATION [LF]

E5U011642250N02

• Consists of a positive pressure valve, negative pressure valve, spring, and O-ring.

• When there is positive pressure in the fuel tank due to evaporative gas, the evaporative gas is released into the

atmosphere. When there is negative pressure, air is introduced to the fuel tank.

• The positive pressure valve and negative

pressure valve opening pressures are higher than
the check valve (two-way) built into the rollover
valve, therefore the positive and negative
pressure valves are normally not open.

End Of Sie

ROLLOVER VALVE FUNCTION [LF]

E5U011642720N03

• The rollover valve prevents fuel flow into the evaporative gas passage during sudden cornering or vehicle

rollover.

End Of Sie

ROLLOVER VALVE CONSTRUCTION/OPERATION [LF]

E5U011642720N04

• The rollover valve cannot be removed or installed as it is built into the fuel tank.

• The rollover valve consists of a float, and spring.

• The rollover valve utilizes a combination of float weight, spring force, and buoyancy. When the float is sunk in

the fuel, the float (valve) closes to block the sealing surface of the passage.

FUEL SHUT-OFF VALVE FUNCTION [LF]

E5U011642990N01

• The fuel shut-off valve prevents fuel from flowing to the charcoal canister during tight turns or vehicle rollover.

• The fuel shut-off valve releases evaporative gas to the charcoal canister.

• During refueling, the fuel shut-off valve closes to prevent a fuel overflow.

End Of Sie

FUEL SHUT-OFF VALVE CONSTRUCTION/OPERATION [LF]

E5U011642990N02

• The fuel shut-off valve is built into the fuel tank.

• The fuel shut-off valve mainly consists of a valve, float, spring, and by-pass valve.

• During refueling or due to fuel sloshing, the float

is flooded with fuel and the floating force causes
the valve to close. Also, during vehicle rollover,
the valve closes due to balance between the float
gravity and spring.

End Of Sie

CHARCOAL CANISTER FUNCTION [LF]

E5U011613970N01

• The charcoal canister contains activated charcoal that temporarily absorbs evaporative gas.

End Of Sie

CHARCOAL CANISTER CONSTRUCTION/OPERATION [LF]

E5U011613970N02

• Installed on the rear of the fuel tank.

• During purge solenoid valve operation,

atmosphere enters the charcoal canister from the
atmospheric orifice to entirely flood the activated
charcoal and release the evaporative gas.
