EVAP (Evaporative Emission Control System)

The Evaporative Emission Control System (EVAP) is a key part of OBD-II scan tools that helps keep fuel vapors and pollution under control. The EVAP system helps cut down on hydrocarbon emissions and stops fuel vapors from escaping into the air and making it dirty. In this article, we’ll talk about what the EVAP system is for, how it works, what it’s made of, and how important it is to keep it in good shape. Purpose of EVAP System The main purpose of the EVAP system is to stop fuel vapors from getting out of … Read more

EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) System

EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) System

EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) is one of the On-Board Diagnostics (OBD-II) systems related to emission. The EGR system is a pivotal element in reducing harmful emissions, making the engine run better, and improving fuel efficiency. Let’s learn further about the EGR system and how it actually works in more depth. Purpose of EGR System The main goal of the EGR system is to cut down on the amount of Nitrogen oxides(NOx) that comes out of the engine. NOx is a dangerous pollutant that makes smog and makes it hard to breathe. By sending some of … Read more

OBD-II Fuel Trim

OBD-II Fuel Trim

Fuel Trim is a pivotal part of the OBD-II system. OBD-II scan tool helps check and adjust the amount of air and fuel in the engine to make sure that it burns properly. The fuel trim system makes up for changes in how the engine is running and looks for problems with the fuel system and/or engine sensors. In this article, we’ll talk about what Fuel Trim is for, its parts, the different types, how to interpret data, diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs), and how important it is to keep it well-maintained. Purpose of Fuel Trim … Read more
