Fuel tank

The air in the tank leaves the atmosphere through the adsorber tank of petrol vapors (when the engine is muffled).

Absorber

Purpose The petrol vapor absorber is connected to the fuel tank to catch gasoline vapors and allow them to enter the atmosphere
(toxicity reduction system). The gasoline vapor absorber is a cylindrical tank equipped with an activated carbon filter. The gasoline
vapors are absorbed by the activated carbon filter in the absorber tank. Placement Figure 12.34 (2) Absorber.

Purge gas absorber gas purge solenoid valve (1215)

Purpose The gasoline absorber purge purge solenoid valve, controlled by the engine control computer, provides recirculation of the
vapor of gasoline stored in the absorber. Placement Fig. 12.35 (3) Evaporator vapor purge solenoid valve. Fig. 12.36
(4) Return spring. (5) Electromagnetic winding. (6) The valve. (7) Magnetic core. When the electromagnetic purge valve of the
absorber receives power, the electromagnetic winding (5) draws in the magnetic core (7), which presses the valve (6). Gasoline,
which is in the absorber, can then be sucked into the intake manifold. When the electromagnetic purge valve of the absorber stops
receiving power, the return spring (4) pushes the valve (6), which stops the purge of the absorber.Phases of action When the
engine stops, the absorber purge solenoid valve closes. The adsorber tank collects gasoline vapor in the fuel tank. When the engine
is running, the engine management computer evaluates the mass of gasoline contained in the absorber, gradually opening the
absorber purge solenoid valve to determine the amount of air / gasoline mixture sent to the engine. When the engine control
computer recognizes the airflow through the absorber purge solenoid valve, it determines the degree of saturation of the absorber
with petrol vapors based on this. The engine management computer reduces fuel consumption through injectors and controls the
absorber purge solenoid valve to get the total amount of fuel required to be injected into the engine cylinders. The control of the
absorber purge solenoid valve corresponds to the percentage of the absorber's purge that varies with the engine speed and
load. The motor computer controls the operation of the electric throttle to provide a reduced pressure in the intake air
manifold. When the absorber's purge solenoid valve is open, the vacuum in the intake manifold allows the gasoline vapor entering
the absorber to enter.Features of electrical equipment The control of the solenoid valve of the gasoline vapor absorber is carried
out according to the RCO type (cyclical opening degree). Pin assignment of connector:
