What is most likely the cause of a small evap system leak on a 1997 Mitsubishi Eclipse RS?
it happened to my Honda Accord yesterday also. Friend of mine used scanner to detect that problem and found out that the part name "Purge system solenoid valve" was broken. I hope this will give you a hint for your car. Thia problem can also be caused by an improperly installed air filter housing. The housing may not be sealed properly on its gaskets or the holding clips may not be set. It is an easy item to check! You may want to check your charcoal canister also...I had the same problem just two month's ago and that was the problem...I have a 99 Eclipse RS Spyder.... it is your roll over valve on the fuel tank i have a 97 rs too it had the same problem I would start with making sure you have a good seal on your gas cap as well (three clicks whenever it is removed and put back on). This is one of the most common causes of this code. Also, check all your vaccum lines for cracks from the gas tank to the evap system. Another cause, as mentioned above, is the purge solenoid sensor.
PatC 98Cherokee40 the ac will put out cold air after a while the air slows down and gets warm even though the fan is still working. The box inside when the condenser is feels cool What could be wrong?
have the freon charge checked if the freon is low the evap core can freeze and the air flow is restricted and no air flow or little air flow is the result
If you are getting codes PO138 PO455 and PO442 would this be a O2 sensor causing all the problems or an emission leak causing the problems or both?
well a p0138 is an o2 sensor problem and as for the P0455 the evap system has a very large leak over 40 microns and it may need a fuel cap the P0442 and the P0455 usually go together one is the cause of another
Does sunlight affect evaporation?
Yes, evaporation occurs when some molecules in a solution have enough kinetic energy to escape from the surface of the bulk liquid. The kinetic energy is dependent on temperature, and thus temperature most certainly affects the rate of evaporation.
Why it is unlikely that calcium chloride crystals are made from calcium metal?
It is unlikely that calcium chloride crystals are made from calcium metal because calcium is a rare and very expensive metal, also very susceptible of corrosion in normal air.It is much easier to start with limestone (CaCO3) and dissolve it with hydrochloric acid. Carbon dioxide is released and the excess of water should be evaporated after filtering of the undissolved particles of the limestone impurities.(CaCO3)s + (impurities of limestone)s + (HCl)l => (CaCl2)s + (CO2)g + (H2O)evap ++ [impurities of limestone]filter

It is underneath the vehicle on the driver's side. It is a rectangular black box, with the solenoid toward the front of the vehicle.
What is an evap system purge and vent solenoid?
on modern cars the fuel system is unvented. The evap purge and vent solenoid goes to a charcoal canister. When the vehicle is off the fuel tank is connected to the charcoal canister through the P/V solenoid and it absorbs the vented gas fumes from the tank. When the vehicle is on and at speed the solenoid switches and the charcoal canister is connected to engine vacuum and the vacuum of the engine purges the gas fumes in the charcoal through the engine burning them
What does a code P0441 EVAP emission mean?
It means you have an Evap purge control leak in the EVAP system. Basically when you have gasoline in a car there are a lot of excess fumes, these fumes are routed through the EVAP system of the car, through a charcoal canister, and returned back to your gas tank as liquid fuel. A leaking charcoal canister, Evap Purge solenoid, PCV lines or PCV elbows can cause this. Also a leaking gas cap can cause this. I would recommend replacing the gas cap first. if that does not do it, check all the connections to the EVAP canister *located in the engine by the firewall*. If there are any leaks, change the elbows or lines. IF the problem still exists you most likely need a new charcoal canister or Canister purge valve solenoid.
