Evaporative Emissions System: Specifications Lincoln MKS I рестайлинг

SPECIFICATIONS

TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS

The EVAP system consists of the

1. EVAP canister purge valve.
2. EVAP canister.
3. dust separator and EVAP canister vent solenoid assembly.
4. fuel vapor tube assembly (includes the FTP sensor).
5. Easy Fuel™ (capless) fuel tank filler pipe.

The EVAP system

1. utilizes an ORVR system that captures the fuel vapors from the vehicles fuel tank during refueling.
2. prevents hydrocarbon emissions from reaching the atmosphere.
3. stores fuel vapors in the EVAP canister that are generated during vehicle operation or hot soak, until they can be consumed by the engine during normal engine operation.
4. routes the stored fuel vapors to the engine during engine operation.
5. is controlled by the PCM which, using various sensor inputs, calculates the desired amount of purge flow. The PCM regulates the purge flow, induced by the application of intake manifold vacuum, by varying the duty cycle applied to the EVAP canister purge valve.

The fuel vapors are routed

1. from the fuel tank through the fuel vapor vent valve.
2. to the EVAP canisters through the fuel vapor tube assembly.
3. to the engine when the EVAP canister purge valve is opened by the PCM.

The FTP sensor

1. is part of the fuel vapor tube assembly.
2. monitors the pressure levels in the fuel tank.
3. communicates the pressure reading to the PCM during the OBD II leak test.

The fuel vapor tube assembly

1. structure varies to correspond with fuel tank design (L-shaped or saddle-type).
2. is located on the top of the fuel tank.
3. is used to control the flow of fuel vapors entering the EVAP system.

The EVAP canister

1. is located midship under the RH side of the vehicle.
2. contains activated carbon.
3. stores fuel vapors.

Easy Fuel™ (capless) fuel tank filler pipe

1. relieves system vacuum below -3.5 kPa (-16.00 in H 2 O).

The EVAP canister vent solenoid

1. is normally open.
2. seals the EVAP system for the inspection and maintenance (I/M 240) test and OBD II leak and pressure tests.
3. is serviced as part of the dust separator assembly.

The EVAP canister purge valve

1. is normally closed.
2. regulates the purging of the EVAP canisters.
3. is controlled by the PCM.
4. is repaired as a separate item.
5. is direct mounted to the intake manifold (3.7L Ti-VCT engine).
6. is mounted to the intake manifold and is part of the vapor line (3.5L GTDI engine).

The EVAP dust separator

1. is attached to the EVAP canister.
2. prevents suspended dust and dirt particles from entering the EVAP system.
3. and the EVAP canister vent solenoid are serviced together as an assembly.

The EVAP system monitor

1. is a self-test strategy within the PCM which tests the integrity of the EVAP system.
2. monitors the EVAP system for leaks.
3. monitors electronic EVAP components for irrationally high or low voltages.
4. monitors for correct EVAP system operation.
5. uses negative and positive leak test methods to test and activate the EVAP system.

For additional information on the operation of the EVAP system monitor, refer to the «ENGINE CONTROLS - INTRODUCTION (EXCEPT DIESEL & HYBRID) (SECTION 0)».
