Methods and systems for predicting a vehicle stop event and/or operating a purge pump for a vehicle are disclosed. An example method includes providing a fuel vapor canister in fluid communication with a fuel tank of the vehicle, the fuel vapor canister configured to absorb fuel vapors from the fuel tank, and placing a purge pump in fluid communication with the fuel vapor canister, with the purge pump being configured to pump an external airflow into the canister. Some methods and systems may be directed to predicting a vehicle stop while the vehicle is moving based upon at least a model of vehicle speed, and initiating a vehicle response based upon the prediction. In some examples, a vehicle response includes reducing ambient noise emitted by the purge pump.
