The Vapor Canister found in Cadillac Escalade is part and parcel of the evaporative emissions control (EVAP) system whose purpose it is, to minimize the release of hydrocarbon in the atmosphere. This component more commonly known as the carbon or charcoal canister, holds fuel vapors and supplies it to the engine whenever necessary so that it can be burnt in the engine chamber. The canister is mostly mounted in the engine bay or in the vicinity of the fuel tank and is a part of the fuel supply system. The Cadillac Escalade models that have been made over the past decades have been integrated with different Vapor Canisters with advanced-diagnostic solutions in current models. Some of the parts include canister vent solenoid, and fuel tank pressure sensor that check for leaks or adequately operating of the system. The primary variation in these canisters is the diagnostic features for which they have to meet high emission specification levels though they continue to hold and transfer vapor.

Cadillac Escalade Vapor Canister Parts Questions & Experts Answers
Q: What is the purpose and function of the Evaporative Emissions Control system,Canister Purge Valves,Fuel Pressure Sensor and Canister on Cadillac Escalade?
A: The EVAP system is used to lessen the chances of fuel system vapors, which contains unburn hydrocarbons, being released to the atmosphere. During hot weather, fumes in the fuel tank evaporate and, when the pressure is increased to a specific level, the fuel vapor vent valve and the fuel vapor control valve open to pump the vapors to the EVAP canister where they are temporarily stored until they can be burnt by the engine. The canister purge solenoid is opened by PCM under certain circumstances and the vapors produced are admitted into the intake manifold to be burnt with the air/fuel mix. The EVAP canister is a chamber which is mounted under the car but is full of activated charcoal and does not require any service. Fuel tank pressure sensor checks tank pressure and transmits with PCM during leakage tests. The vent solenoid is ON but isolates the system for the testing The canister purge solenoid is closed or opened by PCM depending on the signals from the intake manifold vacuum, sensor data that decides vapor flow. Some of the signs of EVAP system malfunction include fuel smell, poor start or idle, stalling, difficulty in accelerating and driving, and these are often as a result of defective vapor hoses and or fuel tank. To test for elements such as high fuel vapor pressure, the valve can be opened by taking off the gas cap in order to listen for pressure relief hissing. The other element of air intake service process is rather simple and consists in the removal of air intake duct, detachment of electrical connectors and quick-connect fittings, and the reconnection and installation of the air intake duct in the reverse order. The EVAP canister and the fuel tank pressure sensor, need the car to be lifted and supported on jack stands for removal and installation.
