EVAP System Function

The document describes an evaporative emission control system that prevents fuel vapors from escaping to the atmosphere by storing them in an activated charcoal canister. When the engine is running, the stored vapors are purged from the canister and combusted in the engine, controlled by the ME-SFI control unit via a purge control valve.

The evaporative emission control system prevents fuel vapors escaping to atmosphere. This is done by storing the fuel vapors
temporarily in the activated charcoal canister.

When the engine is running, the fuel vapors stored in the activated charcoal canister are drawn off through the purge control valve
and combusted in the engine.
The activated charcoal canister is purged (re-generated) at:
- coolant temperature > 70 °C
- blocking time after engine start elapsed, approx. 2 minutes
- Engine not in deceleration mode

The purge quantity is controlled by the ME-SFI control unit operating the purge control valve. The purge quantity is determined by
constantly opening and closing the purge control valve for on and off periods of various lengths.

The idle speed control prevents changes in engine speed resulting from purging. A richer or leaner fuel-air mixture is produced in
line with the charge of the activated charcoal canister with fuel vapors.

Air admission to fuel tank


Air is admitted through the activated charcoal canister. This is done by the activated charcoal canister (77) drawing air out of the air
admission line (a) and fuel vapors out of the activated charcoal canister into the fuel tank (75), respectively.

Air release from fuel tank


The fuel tank is vented through the activated charcoal canister. In this case, the fuel vapors flow to the activated charcoal canister
where they are stored, or if purging is activated at that moment, they are drawn off into the intake manifold.

Vent valve
On vehicles fitted with a vent valve the fuel tank is vented from a pressure of 30 to 50 mbar, and air admitted at a vacuum of 1 to 16
mbar. In addition, this prevents overfilling the fuel tank.

as of MY 98
During refueling the fuel vapors are collected at the filler neck and passed to the activated charcoal filter (ORVR = Onboard
Refueling Vapor Recovery). Large activated charcoal canister.

Engines with charging (compressor or turbocharger)


A check valve in the purge line prevents the boost pressure building up toward the activated charcoal canister.
