How to Service and Repair the Vapor Canister on Ford Thunderbird?

Begin servicing the evaporative emission control canister only after positioning the vehicle on a hoist with neutral gear selection. The disconnected battery ground cable serves to minimize electrical sparks because these sparks could create flammable conditions in fuel vapors. Start the evaporative emissions (EVAP) canister service process by taking out the rear subframe and cutting off the vapor tube and its two electrical connectors. The next step requires you to remove the four bolts from the EVAP canister bracket assembly before separating the canister with bracket assembly while re-tightening the bolts to 10 Nm (89 lb-in) during reinstallation. Check the three fuel vapor tubes of the EVAP canisters for damaged O-ring seals. New O-ring seals should be lubricated with clean engine oil before they are reinstalled. After removing the rivet you can proceed with the EVAP canisters installation by following the reversal of the removal steps. The repair verification cycle for evaporative emissions along with a leak test must be performed before the system can be declared fully operational.

The Vapor Canister in Ford Thunderbird automobiles is a component of the evaporative emissions control (EVAP) system with an aim of avoiding emission of hydrocarbons to the air. It works by holding fuel vapors in a carbon canister; the canister has a substance known as activated charcoal that absorbs the said vapors. While the engine runs, a valve opens and emissions, together with a proportional amount of air is drawn into the engine and combusted. Various models of Thunderbird have incorporated the Vapor Canister in the past; some of these models included a replaceable filter which could easily be changed when necessary. These include the canister vent solenoid and fuel tank pressure sensor proving extra diagnostic features of the system to detect leaks. These advancements guarantee that the Vapor Canister is responsive to the reduction of emissions and has not compromised the performance of the vehicles.
