Vapor Canister Installation and Repair Tips for 1988 Mazda B2200
Q:
What is the role of the vapor canister in the engine compartment on 1988 Mazda B2200?
A:
Fuel vapor is stored in the evaporative canister, which is in the engine compartment, to avoid its escape. In primitive designs, evaporated fuel goes back to the fuel tank as the temperatures increase. Subsequent models do not have this feature. There is no need to maintain it unless damaged and then it must be inspected in case of leaks and hose repair.
