INSPECTION
PROCEDURE
1. CHECK CANISTER (FUEL SUCTION WITH PUMP AND GAUGE TUBE ASSEMBLY)
(a) Visually check the canister (fuel suction with pump and gauge tube assembly).
(1) Visually check the canister (fuel suction with pump and gauge tube assembly) for cracks or damage.
If cracks or damage are found, replace the canister (fuel suction with pump and gauge tube assembly).
(b) Inspect the airflow of the canister (fuel suction with pump and gauge tube assembly).
(1) Close the port (B) and check that air flows from the port (A) when air is blown into the port (C). OK: Air flows from the port (A). |

(c) Inspect the check valve.
(1) Close the port (C) and check that air flows from the port (B) when air is blown into the port (A). OK: Air flows from the port (B). |

(2) Using a vacuum pump, apply vacuum to the port (A) with the port (C) closed and check that air flows into the port (B). OK: The vacuum is maintained at first. By gradually increasing the vacuum, air flows and the vacuum decreases after the vacuum reaches a certain level. |
