        *b Port (B)
        *c Port (C)

        Using a vacuum pump, check that air flows through the canister (charcoal canister assembly) according to the table below.

        Standard
        Condition Specified Condition
        Block port (B) and (C) and apply 2 kPa (15 mmHg, 0.591 in.Hg) of vacuum into port (A) There are no leaks
        Block port (B) and apply 2 kPa (15 mmHg, 0.591 in.Hg) of vacuum into port (A) Air is sucked into port (C)

        Block port (C) and blow 5 kPa (0.1 kgf/cm2, 0.7 psi) of air into port (A)

        Air comes out of port (B)

        Blow 5 kPa (0.1 kgf/cm2, 0.7 psi) of air into port (A)

        Air comes out of port (B) and (C)

        If the result is not as specified, replace the canister (charcoal canister assembly).

  2. CLEAN FILTER IN CANISTER (CHARCOAL CANISTER ASSEMBLY)

      *a Port (A)
      *b Port (B)
      *c Air

      Clean the filter by blowing 5 kPa (0.1 kgf/cm2, 0.7 psi) of compressed air into the port (A) while holding the port (B) closed.

      Note


      • Make sure to clean the filter using only air, do not use gasoline or any other means.
