EVAP Dual Check Valve

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 28 other vehicles, including the 2014 Lincoln Navigator, 2014 Lincoln MKZ, 2014 Lincoln MKX, 2014 Lincoln MKT, and 2014 Lincoln MKS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The EVAP dual check valve allows purge flow during boost conditions. Fuel vapors flow through the EVAP dual check valve to the intake air system upstream of the turbocharger before entering the intake manifold. When the engine is OFF, or at atmospheric pressure, the EVAP dual check valve is in an indeterminate state.

There are 2 types of EVAP dual check valves on turbocharged engines. One type has the check valves integrated in a single housing assembly. The second type has separate check valves connected to a hose assembly with the EVAP ejector integrated with one of the check valves.
