Any word?

 

Updates?

 

Apologize for the late response. The evap solenoid did the trick. I cleared the cel after it was installed and it hasn't come back with over 200 miles of driving. The car does seem to be idling a little better now too. The evap readiness monitor shows as ready. On a side note, the darn egr emissions readiness monitor isn't ready yet. Does anybody here know a trick to enable the egr readiness monitor so that I can pass my emissons?

 

you need to complete the drive cycle...




this is from the FWD Lancer service manual


1. Engine: start


2. Accelerate until the vehicle speed is 56 − 64 km/h (35 − 40 mph).




3. Travel for 20 seconds or more while keeping the vehicle speed at 56 − 64 km/h (35 − 40
mph). (M/T: 4th speed)

4. Fully close the throttle from an engine speed of 2,000 − 3,000 r/min, and while keeping
the clutch engaged, decelerate to approximately 900 r/min without applying the brakes. Do not steer the handle or turn the light ON/OFF during this time. (During monitor)


5. Accelerate until the vehicle speed reaches 56 − 64 km/h (35 − 40 mph), and travel for 20
seconds or more (M/T: 4th speed). Then, repeat steps 4 and 5 and complete 8 monitor sessions.

6. Return the vehicle to the shop, then turn the ignition switch to "LOCK" (OFF) position.

7. Confirm that the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is not output.


8. If DTC P0401 is set, refer to DTC P0401 − Exhaust Gas Recirculation Flow Insufficient
detected

 

Awesome. Thanks again for all the help. I will try this out and hopefully the egr emissions goes to ready soon.
