Yep, like SC2150 said. Gas tank fumes are routed to the charcoal canister, then when the car senses proper running conditions it opens the valve to allow those fumes to be drawn in and burned via the intake manifold.

All other emissions components have a federal emission warranty of 2/24. The bumper to bumper is 3/36, so actually the federal emission warranty is now meaningless. The evap sol. would fall under the 3/36 after the 2/24 expires. ....worked at a dealer for a while, had to memorize all that chit. |

actually if you make your case all emission componets are covered,the key words are possible damage to converter,and since the only reason the check enigne light in obdII systems is supposed to illuminate is for emission failures that may damage the converter in the first place is to its an easy argument to make,but most manufactures have added so much other crap that the initial laws regarding OBDII get lost,its all about the envirement and less pollution,as funny as that is in the end

▲ ▲ I agree! And speaking of which..... I had what I considered a VERY small scratch/crack on the face of my radio. When I showed it to the dealer, they said, "No problem, we'll replace it...covered!" And they did. Independence Chevrolet of Bloomsburg, PA. Great guys there!

does anyone know the part number for the EVAP solenoid? I need to replace mine, and I would rather stay away from a dealership.
