Purge/Vacuum Hoses
Made of rubber compounds, these hoses route the gasoline fumes from their sources to the canister and from the canister to the intake air flow.

EVAP Canister
Mounted on a bracket ahead of the fuel tank, the canister stores fuel vapors until the PCM determines that engine conditions are right for them to be remove and burned.




Fuel Tank
The tank has a built-in air space designed for the collection of gasoline fumes.

Vacuum Source
The vacuum source is split between two ports, one on either side of the throttle body.

Fuel Cap
The fuel cap is designed to be an integral part of the EVAP system.
