Purpose, Function
Releases evaporative gas from the fuel tank if there is a malfunction in the evaporative gas passage between the fuel tank and the intake manifold. As a result, deformation of the fuel tank caused by evaporative gas pressure is prevented.
Construction
The fuel-filler cap is installed to the fuel filler opening.

The fuel-filler cap consists of a valves, retainer, and springs.

Operation
When there is positive pressure in the fuel tank due to evaporative gas, evaporative gas is released into the atmosphere. When there is negative pressure, air is introduced to the fuel tank.

1. Inspect the tie-rod end for damage and the boot for cracks.
If there is any malfunction, replace the tie-rod end.
2. Inspect for excessive play.
If there is any malfunction, replace the tie-rod end.
3. Rotate the tie-rod end five times.

Thermostat
Purpose, Function
When the engine coolant temperature is low, the thermostat blocks the engine
coolant passage between the radiator and engine. As a result, because engine
coolant cycles without passing through the radiator, warming is promoted.

Intake Air Temperature (Iat) Sensor Inspection
IAT Sensor No.1
Resistance inspection
NOTE:
Because the IAT sensor No.1 is integrated in the MAF sensor, replacing the
IAT sensor No.1 includes replacement of the MAF sensor/IAT sensor No.1.
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable..
2. Disconnect the MAF sensor/IAT sensor No.1 ...
