Rollover and Pressure Relief Valve


NOTE: In vehicle rollover valve is in the inverted position the plunger is forced against the guide plate and raw fuel is prevented from flowing through the valve orifice into the fuel tank vent tube.

NOTE: These vehicles are equipped with only one rollover/pressure relief valve. These dual function valves relieve fuel tank pressure and prevent fuel flow through the fuel tank vent lines should the vehicle be rolled over. To test the To test the Purge Shutoff Switch perform the following procedure.

1. Inspect fuel and vapor hoses for proper routing, cracks, or restrictions.
2. Inspect fuel tank cap for proper seal and fit.
3. Remove fuel tank vent hose from EVAP Canister. Apply light air pressure (3-6 psi.) to the Fuel tank filler tube. Air flow should be present at fuel tank vent hose. If air flow is not present, and Fuel Tank is not over-full, replace Pressure/Relief Rollover Valve.
