Where is the carbon canister located in the Ford Edge?
1 Answers
The carbon canister of the Ford Edge is located near the right rear suspension of the vehicle. Below is relevant information about the carbon canister: 1. The carbon canister is part of the Evaporative Emission Control System (EVAP), which prevents fuel vapor from escaping into the atmosphere after the engine is turned off. 2. If you experience issues such as braking while pressing the accelerator and a strong gasoline smell inside the car, pay special attention to whether the pipes in the carbon canister system are damaged; if the engine idles with a regular fluctuation in RPM and the car lacks acceleration power after starting, check whether the air inlet and filter screen of the carbon canister are blocked. 3. During idling, under the suction of the intake vacuum, the fuel vapor adsorbed in the activated carbon canister is drawn into the intake manifold, causing the oxygen sensor to detect an overly rich air-fuel mixture. As a result, the engine control unit reduces the fuel injector output, leading to a leaner mixture and a drop in idle speed. Subsequently, due to the reduced fuel injection, the oxygen sensor detects an overly lean mixture in the next cycle, prompting the ECU to increase fuel injection, which raises the idle speed again. This results in a regular fluctuation in idle RPM. Therefore, if such symptoms occur, promptly check whether the air inlet of the carbon canister is unobstructed.
