Evaporative Emission Canister Assembly Leak Test

SPECIAL SERVICE TOOLS

CAUTION: The evaporative emission system must not be pressurized to more than 3.48 kPa (14 in/H20) or damage to the evaporative emission system may occur.

1. Connect the Evaporative Emission System Leak Tester to the evaporative emission tube.
2. Apply 12 Volts to the canister vent solenoid.
3. Pressurize the evaporative emission canister to 3.48 kPa (14 inches/H2O).
4. Monitor system for two minutes, the canister fails leak test if the pressure falls below 2.0 kPa (8 inches/H20).
5. Repair any leaks as necessary.
6. Repeat the leak test-evaporative emission canister and bracket until the system remains above 2.0 kPa (8 inches/H2O) after the two minute test period.
