3MZ-FE ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM: SFI SYSTEM: EVAP System
- EVAP System
DESCRIPTION
While the engine is running, if predetermined conditions (closed loop, etc.) are met, the purge VSV is opened by the ECM (included in the hybrid vehicle control ECU) and stored fuel vapors in the canister are purged to the intake manifold. The ECM will change the duty cycle ratio of the Purge VSV to control purge flow volume.
Purge flow volume is also determined by the intake manifold pressure. Atmospheric pressure is allowed to enter the canister through the vent valve to ensure that purge flow is maintained when negative pressure (vacuum) is applied to the canister.
The ECM monitors the condition of both the key-off monitor and purge flow monitor to ensure proper operation of the EVAP system.
Key-off monitor
This monitoring system checks for canister pump module malfunctions and leaks from the EVAP and closed tank systems. Be sure to leave the vehicle for at least 5 hours to sufficiently cool the fuel and stabilize fuel tank pressure. This makes EVAP system monitoring more accurate.
HINT
If the engine coolant temperature is 35°C or more, 5 hours after the power switch has been turned off, the ECM (included in the hybrid vehicle control ECU) will begin performing a monitor check after another 2 hours. If the engine coolant temperature is still 35°C or more, 7 hours after the power switch has been turned off, the ECM will begin performing a monitor check after another 2.5 hours.
There are two methods for monitoring the EVAP system.
* If the fuel tank pressure is higher or lower than the atmospheric pressure, the system determines that there are no leaks in the closed tank system and the system will check for leaks from the piping and canister between the purge VSV and canister pump module. (Method A)
* If the fuel tank pressure is almost the same as the atmospheric pressure, vacuum will be allowed to enter the fuel tank and the system will check for leaks from the fuel tank after checking for leaks from the canister. (Method B)
HINT
*: If there is only a small amount of fuel in the fuel tank, stabilizing the EVAP pressure takes longer than usual.
Purge flow monitor
If EVAP system pressure change is less than 7.5 mmHg (1 kPa) when the engine is running and the purge VSV is turned ON (closed), the ECM (included in the hybrid vehicle control ECU) determines that the purge flow is insufficient.

NOTICE:
* In the Evaporative System Check (Automatic Mode), a series of 6 EVAP SYSTEM CHECK steps are performed automatically. A maximum of 15 minutes is required.
