How to Solve Evaporative Emission System Leakage?

Evaporative emission system leakage treatment method: First, remove the vacuum hose on the activated charcoal canister, then check if the solenoid valve is faulty. If the solenoid valve is faulty, replace it. The following are the impacts of evaporative emission system leakage: 1. Difficulty in engine starting, no idle or unstable idle, black smoke from the exhaust pipe: When the filter at the air inlet at the lower end of the activated charcoal canister is clogged with dust and impurities, the fuel vapor adsorbed by the activated charcoal can reach a saturated state and become liquid fuel, entering the cylinder through the air hole above the throttle valve, resulting in an overly rich mixture. 2. Exceeding tailpipe emission standards, increased fuel consumption: Under normal EVAP operation, if the air inlet at the lower end of the activated charcoal canister is blocked, preventing the engine intake system from normally inhaling fresh air, and the fuel vapor adsorbed in the activated charcoal canister cannot be timely removed, air can only enter through the intake valve of the fuel tank cap, causing the fuel tank to often operate under negative pressure during fuel supply, thereby increasing the evaporation rate of fuel in the tank.

How often should original wiper blades be replaced?

Wiper blades are a type of wear-and-tear automotive product. It is generally recommended to replace them after one year of use or when any of the following three phenomena occur: 1. Thin water streaks: After the wiper blades sweep across, small water droplets remain on the windshield. This may be caused by issues with the wiper blade quality or oil film, etc. The residual water droplets on the windshield can easily cause blurred vision and affect driving safety. When this phenomenon occurs, the wiper blades should be replaced as soon as possible. 2. Scraping noise: Wiper blades are rubber products, and prolonged exposure to air can cause the rubber strips to age and the hardware to wear out. If the wiper blades produce a scraping noise against the glass when in use, they should be replaced promptly. 3. Banded marks: Wiper blades may leave streak-like marks on the windshield, affecting driving visibility and safety. This is often caused by incomplete adhesion between the wiper blades and the windshield or issues with the wiper arm hardware.
