FASTENER IDENTIFICATION
DESCRIPTION
The SAE bolt strength grades range from grade 2
to grade 8. The higher the grade number, the greater
the bolt strength. Identification is determined by the
line marks on the top of each bolt head. The actual
bolt strength grade corresponds to the number of line
marks plus 2. The most commonly used metric bolt
strength classes are 9.8 and 10.9. The metric
strength class identification number is imprinted on
the head of the bolt. The higher the class number,
the greater the bolt strength. Some metric nuts are
imprinted with a single-digit strength class on the
nut face. Refer to the Fastener Identification and
Fastener Strength Charts (Fig. 3) and (Fig. 4).

IOD FUSE
DESCRIPTION
All vehicles are equipped with an Ignition-Off
Draw (IOD) fuse that is disconnected within the
Junction Block when the vehicle is shipped from the
factory. Dealer personnel are to reconnect the IOD
fuse in the junction block as part of the preparation
procedures performed just prior to new vehicle deliv-
ery.
On left hand drive vehicles, the left end of the
instrument panel cover has a snap-fit fuse access
panel that can be removed to provide service access
to the fuses in the junction block. On right hand
drive vehicles the junction block is mounted on the
right hand side of the instrument panel. A finger
recess is molded into the access panel for easy
removal. An adhesive-backed fuse layout map is
secured to the instrument panel side of the access
panel to ensure proper fuse identification. The IOD
fuse is a 15 ampere mini blade-type fuse, located in
Fig. 2 Cigar Lighter / Power Outlet Base Removal fuse cavity # 34. The fuse is secured within a White
molded plastic fuse holder and puller unit that serves

when the vehicle is being prepared for delivery in
order to restore full electrical system operation. Once
the vehicle is prepared for delivery, the IOD function
of this fuse becomes transparent and the fuse that
has been assigned the IOD designation becomes only
another Fused B(+) circuit fuse.
The IOD fuse can be used by the vehicle owner as
a convenient means of reducing battery depletion
when a vehicle is to be stored for periods not to
exceed about thirty days. However, it must be
remembered that disconnecting the IOD fuse will not
eliminate IOD, but only reduce this normal condition.
If a vehicle will be stored for more than about thirty
days, the battery negative cable should be discon-
nected to eliminate normal IOD; and, the battery
should be tested and recharged at regular intervals
during the vehicle storage period to prevent the bat-
tery from becoming discharged or damaged.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING


DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - ENGINE
DIAGNOSIS - INTRODUCTION
Engine diagnosis is helpful in determining the
causes of malfunctions not detected and remedied by
routine maintenance.
These malfunctions may be classified as either
mechanical (e.g., a strange noise), or performance
(e.g., engine idles rough and stalls).
Refer to the Engine Mechanical and the Engine
Performance diagnostic charts, for possible causes
and corrections of malfunctions (Refer to 9 - ENGINE
- DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - MECHANICAL)
(Refer to 9 - ENGINE - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
- PERFORMANCE).
For fuel system diagnosis, (Refer to 14 - FUEL
SYSTEM/FUEL DELIVERY - DIAGNOSIS AND
TESTING).
Additional tests and diagnostic procedures may be
necessary for specific engine malfunctions that can-
not be isolated with the Service Diagnosis charts.
Information concerning additional tests and diagno-
sis is provided within the following:
• Cylinder Compression Pressure Test
• Cylinder Combustion Pressure Leakage Test
• Engine Cylinder Head Gasket Failure Diagnosis
• Intake Manifold Leakage Diagnosis
• Hydraulic Lash Adjuster Noise Diagnosis
• Engine Oil Leak Inspection

INTAKE/EXHAUST VALVES &


SEATS
DESCRIPTION
The valves are made of heat resistant steel, and
have chrome plated stems to prevent scuffing (Fig.
11). The four valves per cylinder (two intake and two
exhaust) are actuated by roller rocker arms, which
pivot on stationary lash adjusters. All valves use
three bead lock keepers to retain springs and to pro-
mote valve rotation.

OPERATION
The intake valve allows the air/fuel mixture to
enter the combustion chamber. The exhaust valve
allows the burned air/fuel mixture to exit the com-

CYLINDER HEAD
Adaptor 8116 DESCRIPTION
The aluminum alloy cylinder heads feature cross-
flow type intake and exhaust ports. Valve guides and
seat inserts are powdered metal. Valves are arranged
in a “V”, with each camshaft on center. To improve
combustion speed the chambers are a compact spher-
ical design with a squish area of approximately 30
percent of the piston top area. The cylinder heads are
common to either cylinder bank by reversing the
Cooling System Tester 7700 direction of installation.

A cylinder head gasket leak can be located between
adjacent cylinders or between a cylinder and the
adjacent water jacket.

Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx) are converted into elemen-
tal Nitrogen (N) and water. The three-way catalyst is
most efficient in converting HC, CO and NOx at the
stoichiometric air fuel ratio of 14.7:1.
Back Pressure Test Adapter - CH8519 The oxygen content in a catalyst is important for
efficient conversion of exhaust gases. When a high
oxygen content (lean) air/fuel ratio is present for an
extended period, oxygen content in a catalyst can
reach a maximum. When a rich air/fuel ratio is
present for an extended period, the oxygen content in
the catalyst can become totally depleted. When this
occurs, the catalyst fails to convert the gases. This is
known as catalyst 9punch through.9
Catalyst operation is dependent on its ability to
store and release the oxygen needed to complete the
emissions-reducing chemical reactions. As a catalyst
deteriorates, its ability to store oxygen is reduced.
Since the catalyst’s ability to store oxygen is some-
what related to proper operation, oxygen storage can

FUEL TANK
DESCRIPTION
The fuel tank is constructed of a plastic material.
Its main functions are for fuel storage and for place-
ment of the fuel pump module. The tank is made
from High density Polyethylene (HDPE) material.If
equipped with ORVR (Onboard Refueling Vapor
Recovery) it has been added to the fuel tank to con-
trol refueling vapor emissions.

OPERATION
All models pass a full 360 degree rollover test Fig. 16 Battery Cable
without fuel leakage. To accomplish this, fuel and

vapor flow controls are required for all fuel tank con- 2 - SERVICE VACUUM SUPPLY TEE
nections.
All models are equipped with either one or two
rollover valves mounted into the top of the fuel tank (3) Remove rear seat, refer to the Body section for
(or pump module). more information.
An evaporation control system is connected to the
rollover valve(s)/control valve(Refer to 25 - EMIS-
SIONS CONTROL/EVAPORATIVE EMISSIONS/
ORVR - OPERATION) to reduce emissions of fuel
vapors into the atmosphere, when the tank is vented
due to vapor expansion in the tank. When fuel evap-
orates from the fuel tank, vapors pass through vent
hoses or tubes to a charcoal canister where they are
temporarily held. When the engine is running, the
vapors are drawn into the intake manifold. In addi-
tion, fuel vapors produced during vehicle refueling
are allowed to pass through the vent hoses/tubes to
the charcoal canister(s) for temporary storage (prior
to being drawn into the intake manifold). All models

OPERATION
The PCM adjusts engine idle speed through the
idle air control motor to compensate for engine load,
coolant temperature or barometric pressure changes.
The throttle body has an air bypass passage that
provides air for the engine during closed throttle idle.
The idle air control motor pintle protrudes into the
air bypass passage and regulates air flow through it.
The PCM adjusts engine idle speed by moving the
IAC motor pintle in and out of the bypass passage.
The adjustments are based on inputs the PCM
receives. The inputs are from the throttle position

O2 SENSOR (Continued)
The PCM compares the reading from the sensors to
calculate the catalytic convertor oxygen storage
capacity and converter efficiency. Also, the PCM uses
the upstream heated oxygen sensor input when
adjusting injector pulse width.
When the catalytic converter efficiency drops below
emission standards, the PCM stores a diagnostic
trouble code and illuminates the malfunction indica-
tor lamp (MIL).
The O2 sensors produce voltages from 0 to 1 volt,
depending upon the oxygen content of the exhaust
gas. When a large amount of oxygen is present
(caused by a lean air/fuel mixture, can be caused by
misfire and exhaust leaks), the sensors produces a
low voltage. When there is a lesser amount of oxygen
present (caused by a rich air/fuel mixture, can be
caused by internal engine problems) it produces a
higher voltage. By monitoring the oxygen content
and converting it to electrical voltage, the sensors act

2 - O2 SENSOR element that keeps the sensors at proper operating
temperature during all operating modes. Maintaining
correct sensor temperature at all times allows the
system to enter into closed loop operation sooner.
Also, it allows the system to remain in closed loop
operation during periods of extended idle.
In Closed Loop operation the PCM monitors the O2
sensors input (along with other inputs) and adjusts
the injector pulse width accordingly. During Open
Loop operation the PCM ignores the O2 sensor input.
The PCM adjusts injector pulse width based on pre-
programmed (fixed) values and inputs from other
sensors.
The Automatic Shutdown (ASD) relay supplies bat-
tery voltage to both the upstream and downstream
heated oxygen sensors. The oxygen sensors are
equipped with a heating element. The heating ele-
ments reduce the time required for the sensors to
reach operating temperature. The PCM uses pulse
width modulation to control the ground side of the
heater to regulate the temperature on 4 cyl.

The heating element in the sensor provides heat to
the sensor ceramic element. Heating the sensor
allows the system to enter into closed loop operation
sooner. Also, it allows the system to remain in closed
loop operation during periods of extended idle.
In Closed Loop, the PCM adjusts injector pulse
width based on the upstream heated oxygen sensor

PCM adjusts injector pulse width based on prepro-

Power assist is provided by a pump and is con-
trolled by an open-center, rotary type control valve. It
directs fluid to either side of the gear’s integral steer-
ing rack piston. Depending on the rotation of the
steering wheel, more fluid pressure is directed to one
side of the rack piston compared to the other.
Road feel is controlled by the diameter of a torsion
bar which initially steers the vehicle. As steering
effort increases, as in a turn, the torsion bar twists
causing relative rotary motion between the rotary
valve body and valve spool. This movement restricts
fluid flow to one side of the integral rack piston and
redirects fluid behind the other side of the integral
rack piston, building up hydraulic pressure, thus
assisting in the turning effort.

With the engine running and the vehicle speed
between 0 km/h (0 mph) and approximately 32 km/h
(20 mph), minimum steering effort is required.
Between approximately 32 km/h (20 mph) and 100
km/h (60 mph), power steering effort will gradually
increase based upon vehicle speed. Above approxi-
mately 100 km/h (60 mph), maximum steering effort
is provided by the speed proportional steering sys-
tem.
Variable-effort power steering is provided by con-
trolling power steering fluid pressure at the power
steering gear. A solenoid control valve located on the
steering gear (Fig. 2) is used to control power steer-
ing gear return fluid pressure. The pressure is con-
trolled by varying the size of an orifice.
The variable-assist speed-proportional solenoid con-
trol valve is controlled by the Body Control Module

sent from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). 1 - STEERING WHEEL

Upon receiving the vehicle speed signal from the

PUMP
DESCRIPTION
Hydraulic pressure for the operation of the power
steering system is provided by a belt driven rotary
power steering pump. The power steering pump is a
constant flow rate and displacement vane type pump.
Vehicles equipped with the 2.7 liter engine use a
power steering pump that has an integral reservoir
for the power steering fluid (Fig. 1). Vehicles
equipped with the 3.5 liter engine use a power steer-
ing pump (Fig. 2) that has a remotely mounted res-
ervoir for the power steering fluid.
Both power steering pumps mount to the front of
the engine on the driver’s side.
The service procedures for the power steering Fig. 1 Power Steering Pump (2.7L Engine)
pump are limited to the areas and components listed 1 - POWER STEERING FLUID RESERVOIR

• Power steering fluid reservoirs, related compo- 3 - POWER STEERING PUMP
nents and attaching hardware.
• Power steering pump pulley.
No repair procedures are to be done on the internal
components of the power steering pump. Repair of a
power steering fluid leak from any area of the power
steering pump is not allowed.

reduces pressure on the spring end of the flow con-
trol valve which then opens and allows the oil to
return to the intake side of the pump. This action
limits maximum pressure output of the pump to a
safe level.
Under normal power steering pump operating con-
ditions, the pressure requirements of the pump are
below maximum, causing the pressure relief valve to
remain closed.
In the event of a power steering pump drive belt
failure, manual steering control of the vehicle can
still to be maintained. However, under these condi-
tions, steering effort will significantly increase.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - FLUID LEAKAGE


The 42LE is a dual sump transaxle. The transaxle
uses both automatic transaxle fluid (ATF) for the
main sump and hypoid gear lube for the differential
sump. When diagnosing a leak, it is important to dis-
tinguish which type of fluid is leaking. Factory fill
ATF is dyed red, while differential hypoid oil is
brown in color and has a distinctive odor.
There are two seals at the boundary of the two
sumps. There is a weep hole in the right side of the
transaxle case (Fig. 7) which vents the area between
the two seals. If oil is leaking from the weep hole,
there is at least one seal leaking. Never plug the
weep hole to correct a leaking condition. Plugging the
weep hole could result in contaminating one or both
transaxle sumps, low oil level, poor transaxle perfor-
mance or transaxle failure. In order to correctly Fig. 8 Converter Housing Leak Paths

Some suspected converter housing fluid leaks may


not be leaks at all. They may only be the result of
residual fluid in the converter housing, or excess
fluid spilled during factory fill, or fill after repair.
Converter housing leaks have several potential
sources. Through careful observation, a leak source
can be identified before removing the transmission
for repair.
Pump seal leaks tend to move along the drive hub
and onto the rear of the converter (Fig. 8). Pump
o-ring or pump body leaks follow the same path as a

ance for the output shaft.
(d) Install shim on output shaft (Fig. 94). Apply
small amount of petrolatum onto the shim to hold
it in place. Use the original shim as a starting
point. If original shim is not available, use the
thickest shim available. Refer to Output Shaft
Rear Shim Chart for available sizes.
(e) Install output shaft/rear carrier into rear

Use special tool MD-998911 (Disc) and C- 4171 and
C4171-2 (Handle) to press shaft into rear bearing
(Fig. 95).
(f) Do not re-use old transfer shaft nut or
output shaft nut because the removed stake
weakens the nut flange. Using special tools 6497
and 6498, install new output shaft nut. Do not
reuse old output shaft nut. Tighten new output
shaft nut to 271 N·m (200 ft. lbs.).
(g) Check the turning torque of the output shaft
(Fig. 96). The shaft should have 1 to 8 in. lbs. of
turning torque. If the turning torque is higher
than 8 in. lbs., install a thicker shim. If turning
torque is less than 1 in. lb., install a thinner shim.
Make sure there is no end play.

ACCUMULATOR
DESCRIPTION
The 42LE underdrive, overdrive, low/reverse, and
2/4 clutch hydraulic circuits each contain an accumu-
lator. An accumulator assembly typically consists of a
piston, seals, return spring(s), and a cover or plug
(Fig. 150).

The overdrive and underdrive accumulators are


located within the transaxle case, and are retained
by the valve body (Fig. 151).
The low reverse accumulator (Fig. 151) is also
located within the transaxle case, but the assembly is
retained by a cover and a snap-ring.
The 2/4 accumulator is located in the valve body. It
is retained by a cover and retaining screws (Fig.
152).
Fig. 152 2/4 Accumulator Assembly
OPERATION 1 - VALVE BODY

The function of an accumulator is to cushion the

cation force is dampened by fluid collecting in the 6 - PISTON

DESCRIPTION
The 42LE differential is a conventional open
design. It consists of a hypoid type ring and pinion
set, and a differential case. The differential case con-
sists of pinion and side gears, and a pinion shaft. The
differential case is supported in the transaxle by
tapered roller bearings (Fig. 154).

OPERATION
The differential assembly is driven by the transfer
shaft by way of the differential ring gear. The ring
gear drives the differential case, and the case drives

CAUTION: Failure to set the transfer shaft turning
torque correctly may cause transfer shaft bearings
or seals to fail. Be sure transfer shaft does not have
end play. If end play exists, install a thinner preload
shim.

(45) Check the turning torque of the transfer shaft


using a torque wrench (Fig. 224). The turning torque
should be 0.5 to 1.3 N·m (5 to 12 in. lbs.). If the turn-
ing torque is too high, install a thicker transfer shaft
preload shim. If the turning torque is too low, install
a thinner transfer shaft preload shim.

FLUID (Continued)
Low fluid level can cause a variety of conditions
because it allows the pump to take in air along with
the fluid. As in any hydraulic system, air bubbles
make the fluid spongy, therefore, pressures will be
low and build up slowly.
Improper filling can also raise the fluid level too
high. When the transaxle has too much fluid, the
gears churn up foam and cause the same conditions
which occur with a low fluid level.
In either case, air bubbles can cause overheating
and/or fluid oxidation, and varnishing. This can
interfere with normal valve, clutch, and accumulator
operation. Foaming can also result in fluid escaping
from the transaxle vent where it may be mistaken
for a leak.
Along with fluid level, it is important to check the
Fig. 234 Fluid Level Indicator condition of the fluid. When the fluid smells burned,

particles, a complete transaxle recondition is needed.

DESCRIPTION
The Solenoid/Pressure Switch Assembly (Fig. 379)
is inside the transaxle and mounted to the valve
body assembly. The assembly consists of four sole-
noids that control hydraulic pressure to the L/R, 2/4,
OD, and UD friction elements (transaxle clutches),
and the torque converter clutch. The reverse clutch is
controlled by line pressure from the manual valve in
the valve body. The solenoids are contained within
the Solenoid/Pressure Switch Assembly, and can only
be serviced by replacing the assembly.
The solenoid assembly also contains pressure
switches that monitor and send hydraulic circuit
information to the PCM. Likewise, the pressure
switches can only be service by replacing the assem-
bly.

the voltage is greater than 3 volts. The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) (Fig. 402)
communicates shift lever position (SLP) to the PCM
as a combination of open and closed switches. Each
shift lever position has an assigned combination of
switch states (open/closed) that the PCM receives
from four sense circuits. The PCM interprets this
information and determines the appropriate trans-
axle gear position and shift schedule.
LH TRANSAXLE 21 - 153
TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR (Continued)
TRANSMISSION TEMPERATURE SENSOR
The TRS has an integrated thermistor (Fig. 403)
that the PCM uses to monitor the transmission’s
sump temperature. Since fluid temperature can
affect transmission shift quality and convertor lock
up, the PCM requires this information to determine
which shift schedule to operate in. The PCM also
monitors this temperature data so it can energize the
vehicle cooling fan(s) when a transmission “overheat”
condition exists. If the thermistor circuit fails, the
PCM will revert to calculated oil temperature usage.

CALCULATED TEMPERATURE
A failure in the temperature sensor or circuit will
result in calculated temperature being substituted for
actual temperature. Calculated temperature is a pre-
dicted fluid temperature which is calculated from a
combination of inputs:

NON-DIRECTIONAL TREAD PATTERN TIRES
Tires on the front and rear axles operate at differ-
ent loads and perform different functions. For these
reasons, they wear at unequal rates, and tend to
develop irregular wear patterns. These effects can be
reduced by timely rotation of tires. The benefits of
rotation are especially worthwhile. Rotation will
increase tread life, help to maintain mud, snow, and
wet traction levels, and contribute to a smooth, quiet
ride.
The suggested rotation method is the forward-cross
tire rotation method (Fig. 11). This method takes
advantage of current tire industry practice which
allows rotation of radial-ply tires. Other rotation
methods may be used, but may not have all the ben-

STANDARD PROCEDURE - TIRE AND WHEEL


MATCH MOUNTING
Wheels and tires are match mounted at the factory.
This means that the high spot of the tire is matched
to the low spot on the wheel rim. This technique is
used to reduce runout in the wheel and tire assem-
bly. The high spot on the tire is marked with a paint
mark or a bright colored adhesive label on the out-
board sidewall. The low spot on the wheel is identi-
fied with a label on the outside of the rim and a dot
or line in the drop well area of the rim (inside where
the tire mounts). If the outside label has been
removed, the tire will have to be removed to locate
the dot or line on the inside of the rim. The tire can
then be match mounted to the tire.
Information on match mounting the tire to the
wheel can be found in Tire and Wheel Runout/Match
Mounting, items (2) through (5), within Diagnosis
And Testing - Tire And Wheel Vibration. (Refer to 22

DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION - TIRE
Tires are designed and engineered for each specific
vehicle. They provide the best overall performance
for normal operation. The ride and handling charac-
teristics match the vehicle’s requirements. With
proper care they will give excellent reliability, trac-
tion, skid resistance, and tread life.
Driving habits have more effect on tire life than
any other factor. Careful drivers will obtain, in most
cases, much greater mileage than severe use or care-
less drivers. A few of the driving habits which will
shorten the life of any tire are:
• Rapid acceleration
• Severe application of brakes
• High-speed driving
• Taking turns at excessive speeds
• Striking curbs and other obstacles

TIRE IDENTIFICATION
Tire type, size, load index and speed rating are
encoded in the letters and numbers imprinted on the
side wall of the tire. Refer to the Tire Identification
chart to decipher the code. For example purposes, the
tire size P225/60 R 16 97 T is used in the chart. An
All Season type tire will also have either M + S, M &
S or M - S (indicating mud and snow traction)
imprinted on the side wall. An Extra or Light Load
marking “XL” or “LL” may also be listed on the side-
wall. The absence of an “XL” or “LL” marking infers
a standard load tire.

STANDARD PROCEDURE - TIRE INFLATION
PRESSURES
The specified tire pressures have been chosen to
provide safe operation, vehicle stability, and a smooth
ride. The proper tire pressure specification can be
found on the Tire Inflation Pressure Label provided
with the vehicle (usually on the rear face of the driv-
er’s door).
A quality air pressure gauge is recommended to
check tire air pressure. Tire pressure should be
checked cold once per month. Check tire pressure
more frequently when the weather temperature var-
ies widely. Tire pressure will decrease when the out-
door temperature drops. After checking the air Fig. 25 Under Inflation Wear
pressure, replace valve cap finger tight. 1 - THIN TIRE TREAD AREAS
Inflation pressures specified on the Tire Inflation
Pressure Label are always the cold inflation pressure
of the tire. Cold inflation pressure is obtained after
the vehicle has not been operated for at least 3
hours, or the vehicle is driven less than one mile
after being inoperative for 3 hours. Tire inflation
pressures may increase from 2 to 6 pounds per
square inch (psi) during operation. Do not reduce this
normal pressure buildup.
Improper inflation can cause:
• Uneven wear patterns
• Reduced tread life
• Reduced fuel economy
• Unsatisfactory ride
• The vehicle to drift.

large cracks and holes is to use a scrap piece of sim-
ilar plastic and bond with structural adhesive. The
reinforcement should cover the entire break and
should have a generous amount of overlap on either
side of the cracked or broken area.
When repairing plastic, the damaged area is first
“V’d” out, or beveled. Large bonding areas are desir-
able when repairing plastic because small repairs are
less likely to hold permanently. Beveling the area
around a crack at a 20 degree angle will increase the
bonding surface for a repair (Fig. 4). It is recom-
mended that sharp edges be avoided because the
joint may show through after the panel is refinished.

After the parts have been bonded and have had time
to cure, rough sand the seam and apply the final
adhesive filler to the area being repaired. Smooth the
filler with a spreader, wooden tongue depressor, or
squeegee. For fine texturing, a small amount of
water can be applied to the filler surface while
smoothing. The cured filler can be sanded as neces-
sary and, as a final step, cleanup can be done with
soapy water. Wipe the surface clean with a dry cloth

BODY LUBRICATION
LUBRICATION REQUIREMENTS
Body mechanisms and linkages should be
inspected, cleaned, and lubricated, as required, to
maintain ease of operation and to provide protection
against rust and wear. When performing other under
hood services, the hood latch release mechanism and
safety catch should be inspected, cleaned, and lubri-
cated. During the winter season, external door lock
cylinders should be lubricated to assure proper oper-
ation when exposed to water and ice.
Prior to the application of any lubricant, the parts
concerned should be wiped clean to remove dust and

car temperature sensor is made up of two parts. One
part is the in-car sensor aspirator motor assembly,
and the second part is a temperature thermistor. The
in-car sensor aspirator motor assembly attaches to
the back of the ATC Control head (Fig. 14). This
assembly has a small fan and a motor which draws
air through the intake on the front of the ATC con-
trol. The in-car sensor thermistor is located inside of
the ATC Control Head. The in-car sensor aspirator
motor is part of the ATC Control and not a separate
serviceable part. The ATC Control must be replaced
if there is a fault relating to the motor. The in-car
temperature sensor thermistor is part of the ATC
Control and not a separate serviceable part. One

Any kinks or sharp bends in the refrigerant plumb-
ing will reduce the capacity of the entire air condi-
tioning system. Kinks and sharp bends reduce the
flow of refrigerant in the system. A good rule for the
flexible hose refrigerant lines is to keep the radius of
all bends at least ten times the diameter of the hose.
In addition, the flexible hose refrigerant lines should
be routed so they are at least 80 millimeters (3
inches) from the exhaust manifold.
High pressures are produced in the refrigerant sys-
tem when the air conditioning compressor is operat-
ing. Extreme care must be exercised to make sure
that each of the refrigerant system connections is
pressure-tight and leak free. It is a good practice to
inspect all flexible hose refrigerant lines at least once

OPERATION
The emission control principle used in the ORVR
system is that the fuel flowing into the filler tube
(approx. 1” I.D.) creates an aspiration effect which
draws air into the fill tube (Fig. 7). During refueling,
the fuel tank is vented to the vapor canister to cap-
ture escaping vapors. With air flowing into the filler
tube, there are no fuel vapors escaping to the atmo-
sphere. Once the refueling vapors are captured by
the canister, the vehicle’s computer controlled purge
system draws vapor out of the canister for the engine
to burn. The vapors flow is metered by the purge
solenoid so that there is no or minimal impact on
driveability or tailpipe emissions.
As fuel starts to flow through the fill tube, it opens
the normally closed check valve and enters the fuel
tank. Vapor or air is expelled from the tank through
the control valve to the vapor canister. Vapor is
absorbed in the canister until vapor flow in the lines

be trapped in the fuel tank and fuel can not be added
to the tank until the pressure is relieved. This is due
to the leak detection pump closing the vapor outlet

not allowing the tank to vent through the fill tube to
atmosphere. Therefore, when fuel is added, it will

1. Vehicle purge must be activated and for a long

this position there is minimal vapor flow through the
valve.
During periods of moderate intake manifold vac-
uum the plunger is only pulled part way back from
the inlet. This results in maximum vapor flow
through the valve (Fig. 14).

VAPOR CANISTER
OPERATION
All vehicles use a maintenance free, evaporative
(EVAP) canister. Fuel tank vapors vent into the can-
ister. The canister temporarily holds the fuel vapors
until intake manifold vacuum draws them into the
combustion chamber. The Powertrain Control Module
Fig. 13 High Intake Manifold Vacuum Minimal Vapor (PCM) purges the canister through the proportional
Flow purge solenoid. The PCM purges the canister at pre-
determined intervals and engine conditions.

Purge Free Cells


Purge-free memory cells are used to identify the
fuel vapor content of the evaporative canister. Since
the evaporative canister is not purged 100% of the
time, the PCM stores information about the evapora-
tive canister’s vapor content in a memory cell.
The purge-free cells are constructed similar to cer-

EGR VALVE REMOVAL - 3.5L

DESCRIPTION
The EGR valve consists of three major components.
First there is the pintle, valve seat, and housing
which contains and regulates the gas flow. Second
there is the armature, return spring, and solenoid
coil to provide the operating force to regulate the
flow by changing the pintle position. The solenoid coil
assembly is in parallel with a diode and connects to
the two connectors in the connector assembly. The
third major component which senses pintle position
and is connected to the three connectors in the elec-
trical connector.

OPERATION
The exhaust gas recirculation flow is determined
by the engine controller. For a given set of conditions,
the engine controller knows the ideal exhaust gas Fig. 1 EGR tube and Valve - 3.2/3.5L
