2003 Ford Mustang Vapor Canister Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to Service and Repair the Vapor Canister on 2003 Ford Mustang?

  A: The first procedure when servicing or repairing an evaporative emission control canister requires disconnecting the battery ground cable because fuel vapors can create explosion or fire risks. Begin by lifting the vehicle then wearing the supports before you remove the left rear wheel. The procedure starts with removing the canister vent solenoid hose assembly but only perform this task where there are no open flames or smoke since fuel vapor comes with clear dangers to this highly dangerous environment. The maintenance process requires the removal of both the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) canister purge outlet tube connector and EVAP canister purge outlet tube. To remove the EVAP canister with bracket assembly from the vehicle you need to uninstall its bolts and separate the brace connection. Your next step should be to remove the canister vent solenoid together with its hose assembly and then the EVAP canister purge outlet tube elbow. Team up the EVAP canister so it divides from its canister bracket position. You must perform a leak test and the evaporative emission repair verification drive cycle after reversing the installation steps to confirm correct operation.
