STEP 2. Check the evaporative emission purge solenoid
for leaks.
(1) Disconnect hose C from the evaporative emission purge

solenoid and connect a hand vacuum pump to the nipple of
the evaporative emission purge solenoid.

(2) Use the hand vacuum pump to confirm that the evaporative

emission purge solenoid holds vacuum.

(3) Disconnect the hand vacuum pump, and reconnect hose C

to the evaporative emission purge solenoid.

Q: Does the evaporative emission purge solenoid hold

vacuum?
YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Replace the evaporative emission purge solenoid.

Then go to Step 15.

STEP 3. Check for leaks in evaporative emission hoses A
through E.

Use a hand vacuum pump to test each hose from hose A to
hose E.

Q: Do the hoses hold vacuum?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Replace any damaged hose. Then go to Step 15.

STEP 4. Check for leaks in the chamber.
(1) Connect a hand vacuum pump to the nipple.
(2) Plug the other nipple.
(3) Apply vacuum with the hand vacuum pump, and confirm

that the applied vacuum does not fluctuate.

Q: Is the chamber in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 5.
NO : Replace the chamber. Then go to Step 15.

STEP 5. Check for leaks in evaporative emission hoses F
through H.

Use a hand vacuum pump to test each hose from hose F to
hose H.

Q: Do the hoses hold vacuum?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO : Replace any damaged hose. Then go to Step 15.

STEP 6. Using scan tool MB991958, check data list item 29:
Evaporative emission ventilation solenoid.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Remove the fuel tank filler tube protector (Refer to GROUP

13C, Fuel Tank

P.13C-10

).

(3) Disconnect hose H from evaporative emission canister and

connect hand vacuum pump to hose H.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(5) Set scan tool MB991958 to actuator test mode.

• Item 29: Evaporative Emission Ventilation Solenoid.

• While the evaporative emission ventilation solenoid

is energized, operate the hand vacuum pump and
confirm that the solenoid holds vacuum.

(6) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position, and

disconnect scan tool MB991958.

(7) Disconnect the hand vacuum pump, and connect hose H to

the evaporative emission canister.

(8) Reinstall the fuel tank filler tube protector (Refer to GROUP

13C, Fuel Tank

P.13C-10

).

Q: Did the evaporative emission ventilation solenoid hold

vacuum?
YES : Go to Step 7.
NO : Replace the evaporative emission ventilation solenoid

(Refer to GROUP 17, Evaporative emission canister
and fuel tank pressure relief valve removal and
installation

P.17-95

). Then go to Step 15.

STEP 7. Pressure test the evaporative emission system
lines from hoses I to N.
(1) Disconnect hose I from the evaporative emission canister,

and plug hose I securely.

(2) Confirm that the evaporative emission system pressure

pump (Miller number 6872A) is operating properly. Perform
the self-test as described in the pump manufacturer’s
instructions.

(3) Remove the fuel cap.

(4) Connect the evaporative emission system pressure pump

(Miller number 6872A) to the fuel tank filler tube by using
fuel tank adapter (MLR-8382).

(5) Pressure test the system to determine whether any leaks

are present.
NOTE: The "Pressure test" in this procedure refers to the
I/M240 Simulation Test. The eight steps of this test are
described in the manufacturer’s instructions for the evapo-
rative emission system pressure pump, Miller number
6872A.

(6) Remove the evaporative emission system pressure pump

(Miller number 6872A) and the fuel tank adapter
(MLR-8382), and reinstall the fuel cap.

(7) Connect hose I to the evaporative emission canister.
Q: Is the evaporative emission system line free of leaks?

YES : Go to Step 13.
NO : Go to Step 8.
