Evaporative Emission System Hoses/Pipes Replacement Chassis

1. Clean all the EVAP pipe connections and the surrounding areas before disconnecting the pipes in order to avoid possible contamination of the EVAP system.
2. Disconnect the engine compartment EVAP pipe (5) from the chassis EVAP pipe (4).
3. Raise the vehicle. Refer to Lifting and Jacking the Vehicle in General Information.



4. Remove the rear fuel pipe shield attaching nuts (3) and bolt (6).
5. Remove the rear fuel pipe shield (4).

8. Disconnect the EVAP purge pipe (1) at the rear quick connect fitting.
9. Remove the EVAP pipe attaching hardware and the EVAP pipe. Note the position of the pipe for installation.

Important: When replacing the EVAP pipes, always replace them with original equipment or parts that meet the GM specifications for those parts. The replacement pipes must have the same type of fittings as the original pipes in order to ensure the integrity of the connection.

1. Position the EVAP pipe to the frame rail.

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
