Evaporative Loss Control System
This model is fitted with a system to control the evaporation of fuel vapour to the
atmosphere.
A carbon filled evaporative canister absorbs vapour while the engine is not running.
When the engine is started, the vapour is returned to the engine and burnt.
There are two distinct phases to the system's operation; engine off and engine running
see Evaporative Control System - Engine Off and Evaporative Control System -
Engine Running.
