Why does the car's idle speed fluctuate up and down?
1 Answers
The fluctuating idle speed of a car is caused by a faulty carbon canister, and replacing the car's carbon canister can resolve the issue. Below are specific details about the car's carbon canister: Installation and Function: It is installed between the fuel tank and the engine, utilizing the adsorption capability of its internal activated charcoal to absorb and store gasoline vapors from the fuel tank. Working Principle: When the engine starts, the solenoid valve between the activated charcoal canister and the intake manifold opens according to the ECU's command. At this point, the gasoline vapors inside the activated charcoal canister are drawn into the cylinder along with the air under the vacuum pressure of the intake pipe to participate in combustion. This not only reduces unnecessary emissions but also lowers the engine's fuel consumption.
