Fuel Evaporation System: Operation: Notes

During periods of non-operation, raw vapors from the fuel tank and carburetor are channeled to the charcoal canister, where they are stored. When engine is running, canister is purged of these vapors, which are then taken into the intake manifold and burned. The rollover valve prevents fuel flow from tank in the event of vehicle rollover.
