STEP 16. Check for leaks in the evaporative emission
canister.
(1) Remove the evaporative emission canister. (Refer to

GROUP 17, Evaporative Emission Canister and Fuel Tank
Pressure Relief Valve

P.17-72

).

(2) Connect a hand vacuum pump to the vent nipple of the

evaporative emission canister.

(3) Plug the other two nipples or loop a hose between them.
(4) Apply vacuum with the hand vacuum pump and confirm that

the canister holds vacuum.

Q: Does the evaporative emission canister hold vacuum?

YES : Reinstall the evaporative emission canister. (Refer to

GROUP 17, Evaporative Emission Canister and Fuel
Tank Pressure Relief Valve

P.17-72

). Go to Step 17

.

NO : Replace the evaporative emission canister. (Refer to

GROUP 17, Evaporative Emission Canister and Fuel
Tank Pressure Relief Valve

P.17-72

). Go to Step 26

.

STEP 17. Pressure test for clogging in evaporative
emission system lines between hose F and R.
(1) Disconnect hose F from the evaporative emission canister

and plug hose F securely.

(2) Confirm that the evaporative emission system pressure

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

(3) Remove the fuel cap.

(4) Connect the evaporative emission system pressure pump

to the fuel tank filler tube.

(5) After it is confirmed that pressure maintained, unplug hose

F.

(6) Disconnect the evaporative emission system pressure

pump and reinstall the fuel cap.

(7) Connect hose F to the evaporative emission canister.
Q: Does hose F blow the air?

YES : Go to Step 23.
NO : Go to Step 18.

STEP 18. Check for clogging in the evaporator line hose F.
(1) Remove the fuel tank filler tube protector. (Refer to GROUP

13B, Fuel Tank

P.13B-8

).

(2) Disconnect hose F from the evaporative emission canister

and plug hose F securely.

(3) Disconnect hose G from the evaporative emission canister

side, and connect a hand vacuum pump.

(4) Apply vacuum with the hand vacuum pump, unplug hose F.
(5) Disconnect the hand vacuum pump and connect hose F

and G.

Q: Does hose F blow the air?

YES : Go to Step 19.
NO : Replace hose F and reinstall the fuel tank filler tube

protector. (Refer to GROUP 13B, Fuel Tank

P.13B-8

).

Go to Step 26.

STEP 19. Check for clogging in the evaporative emission
system hoses G through N.
(1) Remove the fuel tank filler tube. (Refer to GROUP 13B,

Fuel Tank

P.13B-8

).

(2) Use a hand vacuum pump to clogging test on each hose

from hose G to hose N.

Q: Are the hoses in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 20.
NO : Replace any damaged hose, and reinstall the fuel

tank filler tube and the fuel tank filler tube protector.
(Refer to GROUP 13B, Fuel Tank

P.13B-8

). Go to

Step 26.

STEP 20. Check the check valve A.
(1) Check valve A is a one-way check valve.

(2) Check valve A should allow air to flow in only one direction.
Q: Does check valve A allow air to press in one direction

only?
YES : Go to Step 21.
NO : Replace check valve A, and reinstall the fuel tank filler

tube and the fuel tank filler tube protector. (Refer to
GROUP 13B, Fuel Tank

P.13B-8

). Go to Step 26.

STEP 21. Check the check valve B.
(1) Check valve B is a one-way check valve.

(2) Check valve B should allow air to flow in only one direction.
Q: Does check valve B allow air to press in one direction

only?
YES : Go to Step 22.
NO : Replace check valve B, and reinstall the fuel tank filler

tube and the fuel tank filler tube protector. (Refer to
GROUP 13B, Fuel Tank

P.13B-8

). Go to Step 26.
