The Evaporation Vent Solenoid is part of the emission system on your vehicle. It is designed to help prevent venting of fuel vapors into the atmosphere. When your vehicle is off, fuel vapors are stored in a charcoal tank, containing activate charcoal. The activated charcoal helps trap the fuel vapors.

Symptoms of a bad Evaporation Vent Solenoid are:
- Poor Performance
