Where is the carbon canister located on the Citroen C-Quatre?
1 Answers
Dongfeng Citroen C-Quatre's carbon canister is located under the hood, at the upper left corner of the engine. Below is relevant information about the carbon canister: 1. Introduction: The carbon canister is generally installed between the fuel tank and the engine. Since gasoline is a volatile liquid, the fuel tank is often filled with vapor at normal temperatures. The fuel evaporation emission control system serves to direct these vapors into combustion and prevent them from escaping into the atmosphere. The activated carbon canister storage device plays a crucial role in this process. 2. Principle: After the engine is turned off, gasoline vapors mix with fresh air inside the canister and are stored in the activated carbon canister. When the engine starts, the solenoid valve between the activated carbon canister and the intake manifold opens, allowing the gasoline vapors in the carbon canister to be drawn into the cylinders by the vacuum in the intake pipe along with clean air for combustion. This process not only reduces emissions but also lowers fuel consumption.
