PURGE CONTROL SYSTEM CHECK (PURGE FLOW CHECK)

M1173001400222

Required Special Tool:
MB995061: Purge Flow Indicator
1. Disconnect the purge hose from the evaporative emission

(EVAP) purge solenoid, and connect special tool MB995061
between the EVAP purge solenoid and the purge hose.

2. Before inspection and adjustment, set the vehicle in the

following conditions:

• Engine coolant temperature: 80 − 95°C (176 − 203°F)

• Lights, electric cooling fan and accessories: OFF

• Transaxle: Neutral (A/T − P range)

3. Run the engine at idle for more than four minutes.
4. Check the purge flow volume when engine is revved

suddenly several times.

Standard value: Momentarily 20 cm

3

/s (2.5 SCFH) or

more.

5. If the purge flow volume is less than the standard value,

check it again with the vacuum hose disconnected from the
EVAP canister. If the purge flow volume is less than the
standard value, check the vacuum port and the vacuum
hose for clogging. Also check the EVAP purge solenoid. If
the purge flow volume is at the standard value, replace the
EVAP canister.

EVAPORATIVE EMISSION PURGE SOLENOID
CHECK

M1173001700212

1. Remove the air intake hose <2.4L ENGINE>.
2. Disconnect the vacuum hose (black, black with red paint

mark) from the evaporative emission (EVAP) purge
solenoid.
NOTE: When disconnecting the vacuum hose, always place
an identification mark so that it can be reconnected at its
original position.

3. Disconnect the harness connector.
4. Connect a hand vacuum pump to nipple (A) of the EVAP

purge solenoid (refer to the illustration at left).

5. As described in the chart below, check airtightness by

applying a vacuum with voltage applied directly from the
battery to the EVAP purge solenoid valve and without
applying voltage.

6. Measure the resistance between the terminals of the EVAP

purge solenoid.

Standard value: 30

− 34 Ω [at 20°C (68°F)]

7. Replace solenoid if resistance is out of specification.
