ABSORBER CONTAINER 2124700416
What does this do? How do you test functionality?
I received a P0496 evap emissions high purge flow fault. Checked gas cap and purge valve. The purge valve is stuck open so ordered another. Next to it on the inlet side is
this container. What is it? I googled and really cannot find its function.
It sits next to purge valve. Inlet on bottom from tank. Outlet on top with hose that connects to bottom of purge valve. Our top of purge valve is hose to intake.
"The EVAP system is part of a vehicle's emissions control system that prevents the release of fuel vapors into the atmosphere. It captures and stores fuel vapors from the fuel tank and fuel system, which are then burned off as part of the combustion process. This system is designed to be a closed system, sealed to prevent fuel vapors from escaping. It is made up of various components, including the fuel tank, fuel filler neck, purge valve, charcoal canister, hoses and lines. The system is monitored by the vehicle's On-Board Diagnostic System, which triggers a Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) to alert the driver of any issues. Proper maintenance and inspection of the system can help ensure it is working correctly and reducing harmful emissions."
