        *b Vent Line Port
        *c Air Line Port
        *d Purge Line Port
      2. With the purge line port and air line port closed, apply 20 kPa (150 mmHg, 5.91 in. Hg) of pressurized air into the vent line port, then confirm that pressure is maintained for 1 minute.

        If the result is not as specified, replace the canister (charcoal canister assembly).

  2. INSPECT NO. 2 CHARCOAL CANISTER ASSEMBLY 
    1. Visually check the No. 2 charcoal canister assembly.

        *b Port B
        *c Leak Detection Pump Sub-assembly Connector
        *d Pressure Gauge
      2. With the port B and leak detection pump sub-assembly connector closed, apply 20 kPa (150 mmHg, 5.91 in. Hg) of pressurized air into the port A, then confirm that pressure is maintained for 1 minute.

        If the result is not as specified, replace the No. 2 charcoal canister assembly.

    4. Check the leak detection pump sub-assembly.
      1. Connect a positive (+) battery lead to terminal 5 and a negative (-) battery lead to terminal 1.
