MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) <2.4L ENGINE>

13A-726

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

• The PCM monitors the Evaporative Emission

(EVAP) System pressure.

• The PCM controls the evaporative emission ven-

tilation solenoid. It closes the evaporative emis-
sion ventilation solenoid to seal the evaporative
emission canister side of the system.

• The evaporative emission purge solenoid is

opened to allow manifold vacuum to create low
pressure (vacuum) in the EVAP system.

• When the EVAP system develops a vacuum of 2

kPa (0.29 psi), the evaporative emission purge
solenoid is closed and the fuel system vacuum is
maintained at 2 kPa (0.29 psi).

• The PCM determines whether there is a leak in

the EVAP system by monitoring the vacuum
inside the fuel tank.

• The test is stopped when fuel vapor pressure

exceeds predetermined limits.

.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS

• Measure reverting pressure after depressurizing

by intake manifold negative pressure and detect
malfunction if reverting pressure rises largely.

.

MONITOR EXECUTION

• Once per driving cycle.

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

Check Conditions A: At Start up

• Intake air temperature is 36°C (97°F) or less

when the engine is started.

• The engine coolant temperature is 36°C (97°F) or

less when the engine is started.

• The fuel level sensor output voltage is 2.4 − 3.7

volts when the engine starts and the amount of
remaining fuel is 40

− 85 percent of capacity.

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) <2.4L ENGINE>

13A-728

Check Conditions B: For Test to Run

• Barometric pressure is greater than 76 kPa (11

psi).

• The fuel tank temperature is 33°C (91°F) or less.

• Fuel tank differential pressure sensor output volt-

age is 1 to 4 volts.

Check Conditions C: For Test to Stop

• Engine coolant temperature is greater than 20 °C

(68

°F).

• Intake air temperature is greater than -10 °C (14

°F).

• When the evaporative emission purge solenoid

and evaporative emission ventilation solenoid are
closed, the pressure rises in the fuel tank is less
than 324 Pa (0.047 psi).

• 10 seconds have elapsed from the start of the

previous monitoring.

• Monitoring time: 10 − 14 minutes.

Judgment Criteria

• Internal pressure of the fuel tank has changed

more than 1,177

− 1,373 Pa (0.177 − 0.199 psi) in

128 seconds after the tank and vapor line were
closed.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely
causes for this code to be set are:)

• Loose fuel cap.

• Fuel cap relief pressure is incorrect.

• Malfunction of the evaporative emission canister

seal.

• Malfunction of the fuel tank, purge line or vapor

line seal.

• Malfunction of the evaporative emission ventila-

tion solenoid.
