EVAPORATIVE SYSTEM A vehicle’s evaporative system collects and stores fuel tank
BASICS vapors in a charcoal-filled canister. The evaporative system
uses engine vacuum to draw fuel vapors from the canister
to the engine to be burned.
EVAPORATIVE SYSTEM About 40 years ago, fuel tanks began getting more
BASICS complicated as emission controls were added to
prevent vapors from leaking into the atmosphere.
Filling the tank raises the liquid level, causing the vapor
space to decrease (vapors are compressed), which
causes the tank vapor pressure to increase.

FUEL SYSTEM OPERATION The EVAP system uses the following four processes of
PROCESSES operation:
EVAP SYSTEM OPERATION Purging occurs when the engine is running. The
PROCESSES: PURGING CCV is normally open, and the PCSV is commanded
open at a predetermined purge flow rate. This
allows atmospheric pressure to push air into the
canister, forcing air and fuel vapors toward the
engine.
EVAP SYSTEM OPERATION The KDS Data Analysis screen above (2016 Soul 2.0
PROCESSES: PURGING Liter) shows the EVAP system during purging with
the engine running.
EVAP SYSTEM During the 1st stage, the vapor generation period, the PCSV
MONITORING: VAPOR and CCV are closed to seal the fuel tank and the system
GENERATION PERIOD pressure is measured with the FTPS:
EVAP SYSTEM MONITORING: The 3rd stage is gross leak detection mode, which
GROSS LEAK DETECTION also occurs during the building vacuum (evacuation)
stage.
EVAP SYSTEM The 4th and final stage is the small leak detection mode,
MONITORING: SMALL which checks for .040” (small leak) and .020” (very small
LEAK DETECTION leak).
If the .040” test passes, the system will then test for a .020”
leak from DP_C to DP_D. The earlier DP_A/DP_B values will
be used to make sure vapor generation does not create a
false test result. If the system does not maintain vacuum,
pending DTC P0456 (.020”) is set.
EVAP SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS Following a logical and organized diagnostic plan will
help you determine the root cause of the customer’s
concern. The basic approach is as follows:
GAS CAP SEALING A gas tank cap can cause an EVAP system leak, set a
INSPECTION DTC, and cause a vehicle to fail a state emissions test.
TESTING EVAP As shown above, the PCSV can be tested with KDS to
SYSTEM COMPONENTS determine if the electrical portion of the solenoid is
WITH KDS (PCSV) working properly. This test shows the output from the
PCM.
Canister Shut Off (Toggle On/Off) Canister Shut Off Valve (leak test)
TESTING EVAP SYSTEM On certain models, KDS can perform two types of CCV
COMPONENTS WITH KDS actuations tests:

actuation test toggles the CVV on/off.

EVAP SYSTEM
EVAP SYSTEM The fuel tank filter filters the air flowing through the
DIAGNOSTIC TIPS – FUEL CCV and canister.
TANK AIR FILTER
Inspection intervals vary based on model and mileage,
but the filter has to be inspected to help prevent DTC
P2422. When the vacuum increases to the threshold
value, the system indicates a restricted flow, setting
this code.
NOTE: The fuel tank air filter is also called the canister
air filter.
