All enginesareequippedwith the Positive CrankcaseVenhlation(PCV)system.The PCVsystem ventscrankcasegasesinto the engineair intake wheretheyare burnedwith the fuel and air mrxture. The PCVsystemkeepspollutantsfrom being releasedinto the atmosphereIt also helpsto keepthe engine011clean,by riddingthe crankcaseof moisture and corrosivefumes.The PCVsystemconsistsof the PCVvalve,the nipplein the air intakeand the connectinghoses. Incorrectoperationof the PCVsystemcancause multiple driveabilitysymptoms. A pluggedvalve or hosemaycause’ l RoughIdle l Stallingor slow idle speed l Oil leaks
p See Figures4 and 5 1. Disconnectthe ventilationhosefrom the PCV valve. Removethe PCVvalvefrom the engine Once removed,reconnectthe ventilationhoseto the valve. 2. Startthe engineand allow to idle. Placea finger over openend of the PCVvalve. Makesure intake manifoldvacuumis felt on finger. 3. If vacuumis not felt, the PCVvalve may be restricted. 4. Turn the engineOFFand removethe PCV valve from the hose. 5. Inserta thin stick into the threadedend of the PCVvalve. Pushon the inner plungerand inspectfor movement. 6. If plungerinsidethe PCVvalve is not freeto move backand forth, the valve is cloggedand WIIIrequire replacement.
*It is possibleto clean the valve usingthe appropriatesolvent, but replacementis recommended. REMOVAL&INSTALLATION For PCVvalve removaland installation,pleaserefer to Section1 of this manual. tT9574goi

Changesin atmospherictemperaturecausefuel tanksto breathe,that is, the air within the tank expandsand contractswith outsidetemperature changes.If an unsealedsystemwas used,whenthe temperaturerises,air would escapethroughthe tank vent tube or the vent in the tank cap.Theair which escapescontainsgasolinevapors. The EvaporativeEmissionControlSystemprovides a sealedfuel systemwith the capabilityto store and condensefuel vapors.Whenthe fuel evaporates in the fuel tank,the vapor passesthroughthe EVAP emissionvalve,throughvent hosesor tubesto a carbon filled evaporativecanister.Whenthe engineis operahngthe vaporsare drawninto the intakemanifold and burnedduringcombustion. A sealed,maintenancefreeevaporativecanisteris used The canisteris filled wrth granulesof an activatedcarbonmixture.Fuelvaporsenteringthe canister areabsorbedby the charcoalgranules.A vent cap is locatedon the top of the canisterto providefresh air to the canisterwhenit is beingpurged.Thevent cap opensto providefresh air into the canister,which circulatesthroughthe charcoal,releasingtrappedvapors and carryingthemto the engineto be burned. Fueltank pressureventsfuel vapors into the canister.Theyare held in the canisteruntil they canbe drawninto the intakemanifold.The canisterpurge valve allows the canisterto be purgedat a pre-determinedtime and engineoperatingconditions. Vacuumto the canisteris controlledby the canister purgevalve.Thevalve ISoperatedby the PCM. The PCM regulatesthe valve by switchingthe ground circuit on and off basedon engineoperatingconditions Whenenergized,the valve preventsvacuum from reachingthe canister.Whennot energizedthe valve allowsvacuumto purgethe vaporsfrom the canister. Duringwarm up and for a specifiedtime afterhot starts,the PCM energizes(grounds)the valve preventingvacuumfrom reachingthe canrster.Whenthe enginetemperaturereachesthe operatinglevelof about120°F (49°C) the PCM removesthe ground from the valve allowing vacuumto flow throughthe canisterand purgesvaporsthroughthe throttlebody. DuringcertainIdle conditions,the purgevalve may begroundedto control fuel mixturecalibrations. Thefuel tank is sealedwith a pressure-vacuumrelief filler cap.The reliefvalve in the cap is a safety feature,preventingexcessivepressureor vacuumin the fuel tank. If the cap is malfunctioning,and needs to be replaced,ensurethatthe replacementis the identicalcap to ensurecorrectsystemoperation,

A HeatedOxygenSensor(H02S) hasa heatingelementthat keepsthe sensorat properoperatmgtemperatureduringall operatingmodes.Maintaining correctsensortemperatureat all times allows the systemto enterinto CLOSEDLOOPoperation sooner.

OPERATION The Oxygen(02) sensoris a devicewhich producesan electricalvoltagewhenexposedto the oxygen presentin the exhaustgases.The sensoris mountedin the exhaustsystem,usuallyin the manifold or a boss locatedon the down pipe beforethe catalyst.Theoxygensensorsusedon some models are electricallyheatedinternallyfor fasterswitching whenthe engineis startedcold. Theoxygensensor producesa voltagewithin 0 and 1 volt. Whenthereis a largeamountof oxygenpresent(lean mixture),the sensorproducesa low voltage(lessthan 0.4~).When thereis a lesseramountpresent(rich mixture)it producesa highervoltage(0.6-I .Ov).Thestoichiometric or correctfuel to air ratio will readbetween0.4 and 0.6~.By monitoringthe oxygencontentand converting it to electricalvoltage,the sensoractsas a richleanswitch.Thevoltageis transmittedto the PCM. Somemodelshavetwo sensors,one beforethe catalystand oneafter.This is donefor a catalystefficiencymonitorthat is a part of the OBD-IIengine controls.Theone beforethe catalystmeasuresthe exhaustemissionsright out of the engine,and sends the signalto the PCM aboutthe stateof the mixture as previouslytalkedabout.Thesecondsensorreportsthe differencein the emissionsafterthe exhaust gaseshavegonethroughthe catalyst.This sensorreports to the PCM the amountof emissionsreduction the catalystis performing. The oxygensensorwill not work until a predeterminedtemperatureis reached,until this time the PCM is runningin whatas knownas OPENLOOP operation.OPENLOOPmeansthat the PCM has not yet begunto correctthe air-to-fuel ratio by reading
