Discussion:
The Evaporative Emissions Systems on today’s vehicles are comprised of
sophisticated
components, all of which must be operational for the system to perform properly.
To remain
operational all components must be properly maintained and serviced as describe
in the
appropriate service information available on TechCONNECT.
All worn, damaged, or inoperative evaporative emissions components must be
replaced with
new, unused components available from DaimlerChrysler.
In addition all evaporative emissions hoses both pre-formed and straight must
be replaced in
their entirety. Under no circumstances should a worn or damaged hose be repaired.
Any
attempt to repair a worn or damaged hose may result in a future repeat failure
of the same
hose, and the customer may experience a repeat condition. Hoses must be replaced
with new
assemblies when available or approved bulk hose when the assemblies are not
available.
The approved service procedure, using new MOPAR service components, is the
only way to
ensure that a repair of the evaporative emission system will be permanent. This
is very
important to ensure that the evaporative emission system functions properly
for the useful life
of the vehicle.
