- Which of the following statements about EVAP systems is not true? a. If the system is purging vapors from the charcoal canister when the engine is running at high speeds, rough engine operation will occur. b. Cracked hoses or a canister saturated with gasoline may allow gasoline vapors to escape to the atmosphere, resulting in gasoline odor in and around the vehicle. c. Rough idle, flooding, and other similar conditions can indicate a saturated canister. d. A vacuum leak in the system can cause starting and performance problems.arrow_forwardTrue or False? SAE mandates that engine, when viewed from the front, will be rotating in a counterclockwise direction.arrow_forwardChoose the correct statement. Select one: a. A dry sump system stores oil in a tank outside of the engine. b. A wet sump system uses a scavenge pump and pressure pump. C.
