Evaporative Emissions - Overview: Overview
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Ford Edge. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The EVAP system prevents hydrocarbon emissions from entering the atmosphere by storing fuel vapors and routing the vapors to the engine to be consumed during normal engine operation.
The EVAP system consists of:
- EVAP canister
- EVAP canister purge valve
- EVAP blocking valve (vehicles with Stop/Start)
- Easy Fuel (capless) fuel tank filler pipe
