This TSB provides detailed instructions for a new LEV II EVAP System Check function
using the Diagnostic Tester.
The LEV II System Check allows the Diagnostic Tester to display the fuel tank vapor
pressure as the EVAP VSV and the CCV are operated in a specific six--step pattern.
Problems with the EVAP system are quickly isolated by observing the change in vapor
pressure during each step.
Once the vehicle condition is corrected, the LEV II System Check can also be used to
confirm the repair before the vehicle is returned to the customer.
The inspection procedure using the LEV II System Check (LEV II SYS CHECK) is
described in this bulletin. This function is available using a Diagnostic Tester with version
11.0a software (or newer).

NOTE:
The EVAP system pressure can be affected by ambient temperature, atmospheric
pressure, and fuel level. This test is most accurate when the following conditions
are met.
S The vehicle is at sea level and at an atmospheric pressure of approximately
762 mmHg--a (0 mmHg--g).
S The external fuel tank temperature is between 4 to 35_C (40 to 90_F).
S The fuel level in the fuel tank is approximately 1/4 to 3/4 full.

During Step 2, while the engine is running, the ECM (PCM) energizes/de--energizes
(duty cycles) the EVAP VSV and a vacuum is applied to the entire system. The LEV ll
system uses a high flow CCV. Since the CCV is open, there should be little or no drop in
system pressure.

Applying Vacuum
During step 5, vacuum is applied to the EVAP system. The fuel tank’s interior should
develop negative pressure within 30 seconds (see example “A” in the diagram below).
If the pressure does not decrease sufficiently within 30 seconds, (for example, “B” in
diagram below) this indicates a leak or restriction in the system.
A moderate drop in pressure (for example, “C” in diagram below) indicates that a medium
leak is occurring in the system.

NOTE:
S If the pressure drops to 740 mmHg--a (--22 mmHg--g) at any point during this test,
the Diagnostic Tester will close
OR:
S If the pressure drops to 735 mmHg--a (--27 mmHg--g) the Diagnostic Tester will abort

This usually happens when the fuel level in the tank is above 3/4 full.
Recheck proper fuel level, then restart the LEV II SYS CHECK.
