Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Vapor Blocking Valve
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 31 other vehicles, including the 2018 Lincoln Navigator, 2018 Lincoln MKZ, 2018 Lincoln MKX, 2018 Lincoln MKT, and 2018 Lincoln MKC. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The EVAP vapor blocking valve is a normally open valve, electrically closed by the PCM, to isolate the fuel tank from the rest of the EVAP system. The EVAP vapor blocking valve will automatically open to relieve excess pressure or vacuum, in the fuel tank, if the pressure or vacuum reaches a maximum calibrated value. The EVAP vapor blocking valve is located near the EVAP canister.
