Canister Vent Restriction Test

If the EVAP vent system is restricted, fuel vapors will not be properly purged from the EVAP canister. The PCM tests this by commanding the EVAP purge valve CLOSED and commanding the EVAP vent valve OPEN and monitoring the FTP sensor for an increase in vacuum. If an increase in vacuum is detected, DTC P0446 will set.
