EVAPORATIVE EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM FUNCTION
FOREWORD:
The Evaporative Emission Control System is abbreviated to E.E.C. System. This device collects
the fuel vapor from the carburetor and fuel tank and then the fuel vapor is drawn into the engine for
re-burning to avoid air pollution caused by the fuel vapor diffused into the air.
FUNCTION
Control vaporized HC from
fuel tank not to diffuse into
the air.
The charcoal canister absorbs vaporized HC
from the fuel tank. When the engine is
running and the purge control valve is open,
the fuel vapor in the charcoal canister is
drawn into the engine for re-burning.
Absorb and store the
vaporized HC from the fuel
tank and carburetor.
The vaporized HC is absorbed in the
charcoal canister and the specified volume of
HC in the emission should not exceed 2g.
Completely recover the HC
of blow-by gas in the
crankcase for re-burning.
Through the P.C.V. system, the blow-by
gas from the crankcase is separated into fuel
vapor and fuel and then drawn into the
cylinder for re-burning.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Engine loses power or runs erratic at idle speed
1. Clogged P.C.V. system
2. Clogged air cleaner
3. Faulty purge control valve
4. Loose or broken E.E.C. system tubes or connectors
Engine idles or accelerates roughly
1. Faulty fuel cut-off valve
2. Faulty purge control valve
3. Clogged or faulty charcoal canister

2. EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM IRREGULAR MAINTENANCE:
*Burned crankshaft bearing
Before riding, inspect the engine for engine oil leaks to avoid
crankshaft bearing burning during riding.
*Burned cylinder or piston
Long-time or severe use may cause worn or seized cylinder or
piston. Clean or replace them with new ones.
