    This is a good tutorial on the pre-2006 OBVR design. The next generation design, EVR Phase 2, adds a Refueling Vent Pipe directly returning vapor from the tank to the filler throat during fueling. The EVR Phase 2 gas-pump-nozzle adds a return path for fumes, suctioned into a small orifice (3mm) on the nozzle. In EVR Phase 2 vehicles during refueling venting DOES NOT depend on the path through the CC (as it does in older OBVR cars).

    • @whereisbenzo
      @whereisbenzo 7 місяців тому

      So does that mean I can rule out anything CC related being the reason for why my 2019 M240 cuts off during refueling? I disconnected the line going from the tank to the CC as to troubleshoot if it was that but the pump still clicks off. At this point I’m wondering if it’s the valve at the bottom of the filler neck or the vent valve in the tank that vents to the pipe that leads to the CC.

    I love this channel he explains everything perfectly with diagrams and visuals by chopping the components into pieces to actually look inside of them. I haven’t come across any other automotive channel that actually dismembers the parts and components of a vehicle to better explain them. The only reason this guy isn’t rich yet due to doing this technique that no other channel does is cuz nothing many ppl know of this channel. With more exposure this guy would be rich and have way more subscribers. As a mechanic myself this channel has been invaluable to me due to him cutting open parts for me to take a look inside and I feel that so many more mechanics would love this channel also due to this.

Part of what I'd like to do is make an EVAP canister that can be opened and the charcoal changed out or cleaned easily. Along with the filter pads cleaned. I 3D scanned my canister and plan to 3D print one out of a gas safe plastic like PETG and also add a better inline filter. I didn't want to cut my only canister open to find out how they are supposed to work so seeing this one cut open was great! Thanks again!

    When would the system vent the vapours into the intake and when would it vent them into the atmosphere ? Why not only vent to atmosphere or only vent into the intake?

    • @speedkar1005
      @speedkar1005 5 років тому +1

      Venting to atmosphere is needed when refueling (engine not on) or if there's too much pressure in the tank and it needs to release.
      Otherwise, the ECU determines the correct timing when driving to dump the rest of the vapors into the engine to be reburned.

    • @speedkar99
      @speedkar99  5 років тому +4

    • @fun_ghoul
      @fun_ghoul 5 років тому +3

      If I may be so bold as to rephrase da man, the car decides based on sensor inputs if venting needs to occur at all, and if so, whether the motor can use the fuel at that time. If not, the vapour is vented to the ozone layer. Damn.

    As an old, retired electrical engineer I am very impressed with your teaching skills. Repairing my cars is one of my hobbies, but sometimes I am getting stuck into hidden specific manufacturing problems, like a fuse found under the wax paper insolation on a small AC transformer. Anyhow, I would greatly appreciate if you could help me troubleshoot my 2003 BMW 745Li, which started with not accepting more than 1/2 tank fuel (except when dispensing very, very little at the time), and lately getting the so popular check engine light on with the P0444 code on it. I disconnected and tested the purge valve and seems to be perfectly fine, opening and closing promptly when applying 12v to it. It may be that the purge valve intake hose having a small leak at the connection to the other hose going to the charcoal canister is triggering the P0444 code, but I do not believe this has anything to do with the tank not accepting more than half fuel. BTW, there is no pressure, nor vacuum at the filling cap after driving the car. Could you please feed back with your expertise/experience on this?
    Thanks a million,

    Howdy...
    I have a 1998, 3.3L 4x4 auto. 170,000 miles.
    My wife filled gas tank one day last week while it idling and it started acting like it was missing after that.
    She drove it 200 miles through the mountains and got it home.
    No codes.
    I opened the gas cap, that looks good, and the tank depressurized for no kidding, 5 to 6 minutes. At first it was heavy and wet fumes coming out, then eventually faded away. No visible leaks anywhere, or damage.
    I loosened the gas cap and drove it for 18 miles. No change. Acts like it's mildly missing. Plug and wires only 1 year old. No codes.
    Also, the RPM gauge shakes about 200 RPMs when it feels like it's missing.
    Any ideas? Do ya think my ignition coil just happened to go bad at the same time? Would that not toss a code?
    Thanks!

    That was an awesome video. I'm troubleshooting an evap problem. I had a "small leak" and found a rusted tank and rusted filler neck with small hole. I put in new tank and filler neck and now I have a "large evap leak" I'm not sure why yet. I smell no gas. I do have two small lines that attach to the filler neck. It's possible I hooked those up crossed. My car runs great until I fill the tank. The car then bucks occasionally for the next 60 miles then it runs great.

    I have a question! I have a 95 del sol with B18c swap, I don't have a purge solenoid and the vacuum line that usually runs to it is instead hooked directly to the vacuum port on the intake manifold (right behind the TB) that would usually connect to the purge solenoid, will this work properly without the solenoid or should I just unhook it? I've searched the internet for an hour and can't find an answer.

    Hi, at 1) 5:55 you showed smaller tube that goes to filler neck to vent it out during reufelling. will not this tube to shut off after refuelling otherwise we will keep venting it out. 2) does the vapour cut off , cutt off the vapor to canister , if so why.. i understand about other value which cut off the fuel based on float, dont know why we are cutting of vapor to canister.

    • @speedkar99
      @speedkar99  5 років тому

      Some air needs to escape the tank and vent the filler....think of pouring a bottle of water upsided down...air is displacing the liquid and it needs to breath that air in somehow...so to allow fast flow of gasoline when refuelling, you vent it with the little tube
      If vapor pressure builds to a point where the vapor switch stops it from venting to the canister, it triggers either the gas station pump to shut off (too much pressure or tank is full for more fuel) or it blows the gas cap as a safety release.
