    摘要: A method of pinched line detection for an evaporative emission control system to determine if a pinched line is present within the system includes the steps of pulsing a leak detection pump at a predetermined rate and determining if a last pump period is less than a predetermined possible pinched line period limit. The method also includes the steps of concluding a possible pinched line if the last pump period is not less than the possible pinched line period limit and concluding that there is not a possible pinched line if the last pump period is greater than or equal to the possible pinched line period limit.

    摘要: A method is provided for testing an evaporative emission control system for a missing or loose fuel cap comprising detecting a refueling event and running a leak detection test of the evaporative emission control system to determine if a large leak is present. If a large leak is detected, the methodology sets a fault code and activates a driver warning lamp indicating a potential cap sealing problem. The leak detection test is repeatedly re-executed after the large leak is detected to determine when the large leak condition ceases. When the large leak condition ceases, the previously set fault code is removed and the driver warning lamp is deactivated. If the large leak does not cease and is detected again after the next refueling event when an opportunity for resealing the cap existed, a new fault code is set indicating that the potential cap sealing problem is a persistent problem so that the integrity of the evaporative system may need to be tested. After setting the new fault code, fuel cap specific leak detection testing is suspended until the condition is serviced and the fault code is cleared or a normal leak detection test determines that there is no longer a problem. If no large leak is detected, the fuel cap is assumed to be properly sealed.

    摘要: The present invention provides a flexible fuel compensation system for controlling operating parameters of an internal combustion engine based on a learned value of the percent alcohol content of the fuel using an oxygen feedback system. The methodology determines a fuel composition multiplier based on the percent alcohol content and implements gasoline operating parameters for the internal combustion engine if the fuel composition multiplier is less than a first threshold value, mixed gasoline/alcohol operating parameters if the fuel composition multiplier is greater than the first threshold value, and high concentration alcohol operating parameters if the fuel composition multiplier is greater than a second threshold value for a number of comparison checks. After a predetermined period, the fuel composition multiplier is updated and re-compared to the first and second thresholds and the appropriate one of the aforementioned operating parameters is implemented. A third update of the fuel composition multiplier is made if the determined fuel composition multiplier is less than the actual percent alcohol content of the fuel by more than a given amount.
