INSPECTION PROCEDURE
Remove the bolt and the canister vent tube. Check if there is any dust or dirt in the tube by visually inspecting and tapping/shaking it.
- If the vent tube has any dust or dirt inside it, go to REPAIR PROCEDURE.
- If the vehicle has a canister filter box attached and there is dust or dirt inside the vent tube, go to REPAIR PROCEDURE – FILTER BOX REPLACEMENT.
- If the vent tube has no dust or dirt present, this bulletin does not apply. Continue with normal troubleshooting.
REPAIR PROCEDURE
- Disconnect the purge line and the EVAP canister vent shut valve connector.
- Loosen the two bolts on one side of the canister and remove the other two bolts as shown, then disconnect the second purge line, FTP sensor connector, and the EVAP canister vent shut valve harness clip.
- Remove the remaining 2 bolts, then remove the EVAP canister.
- Check for a protector on the purge tube. If the vehicle does not have a protector, install one as shown. Otherwise, go to step 5.
NOTE: If the vehicle previously came in for DTC P2422, the protector may already be installed on the purge tube. It does not need to be replaced.
- Wrap the fuel purge protector so the slit faces the rear of the vehicle.
- Equally space the zip ties, and tighten the ties so that the locking tab is oriented on the top as shown.
- Trim the ends of the zip ties to less than 5 mm.
- Transfer the original canister vent shut valve and the vent pressure sensor to the new canister.
- Install the new EVAP canister bracket.
- Install the new hose as shown and do not connect the other end at this time.
- Install the new canister drain kit (includes drain box, hose, and clip) but do not connect the other end of the hose at this time.
NOTE: Make sure the hose is installed in the correct position.
- Install the new drain box bracket (non-hybrid only) and the new retainer as shown.
- Install the EVAP canister assembly with the bolts shown finger tight.
- Connect the purge lines, the EVAP canister vent shut valve connector, and the FTP sensor connector.
- Install the bolt as shown and torque all 3 bolts to 5 Nm (7 lb-ft). NOTE: Do not install the fourth bolt because you’ll install it with the filter.
- Install the filter onto the bracket and secure it with the bolt.
NOTE: Do not over-tighten the bolt because you could strip it.
- Install the filter onto the vehicle and torque the nut to 12 N·m (6.9 lb-ft).
- Connect the hoses to the filter as shown.
REPAIR PROCEDURE – CANISTER FILTER BOX REPLACEMENT
NOTE: Only do this procedure when the canister filter box is installed and it needs to be replaced because of dust.
- Disconnect the hoses from the canister filter box as shown.
- Remove the three bolts as shown and remove the canister filter box and bracket from the vehicle.
- Remove the bolt securing the canister filter box to the bracket, then remove the canister filter box.
- Install the new canister filter box onto the bracket and use the bolt to attach it to the bracket.
NOTE: Do not over-tighten the bolt because you could strip it.
- Reinstall the bracket with the three bolts and torque the bolts to 12 N·m (6.9 lb-ft).

Smoke Machine Automotive Leak Detector,Evap Vacuum Smoke Diagnostic Tester,Pipeline Fuel Leakage Detector Compatible with 12V Vehicles
- 【Why Need It】For example: 1. The rupture of the vacuum hose will cause the mixture to be too thick, the idle speed will increase, the hot car will not start well, the engine will surge during acceleration, the fuel consumption will increase significantly, and the exhaust pipe will emit black smoke. 2. Blocking will cause the idle speed to drift, and the idle speed is easy to stall. 3. Air leakage in the vacuum tube will cause the engine to run weakly
- 【No Air Pump】1. The AUTOOL SDT103 smoke leak detector doesn't come with an internal air pump, so you'll need to connect it to an external workshop air source and a 12V vehicle power supply to bring in the workshop air.2. Turn the flow control dial of the AUTOOL SDT103 smoke leak detector counterclockwise to open the airflow, and then switch on the power at the back of the device. This will start the AUTOOL SDT103 machine, generating smoke. (When adding smoke oil to the AUTOOL SDT103 smoke leak detector, make sure not to exceed 20 ml, and please use baby oil or paraffin oila).
- 【External Flow Meter】You can easily control the air pressure, because the air pressure of each pipe in the car is different. If the air pressure is too high, the pipe will be damaged, and if the air pressure is too low, the leak will not be detected. Therefore, the flow meter is very important to protect your detection system more effectively. Make testing safer
- 【EVAP Detection】American cars that began production in 1996 are equipped with EVAP service ports; in most American cars, the EVAP service port is usually located in the engine compartment, but the EVAP service port of some special models may be located in other locations. Open the plastic cover of the EVAP service port, then use the spool wrench to remove the check valve clockwise, then install the EVAP service port adapter, and introduce smoke from the port into the EVAP leak detection system.
- 【Wide Testing Range】The smoke leak detector can do smoke testing of multiple systems, such as EVAP systems, Intake Systems, Cooling / EGR /Exhaust Systems, Crankcase Systems, Engine Airtightness, Vacuum Leaks, Low Pressure Turbo leaks.Applicable cars, motorcycles, snowmobiles, off-road vehicles, ATVs, light trucks and speedboats boats.
