What kind of sensors can be used in a vacuum?

Vacuum prepared cylindrical probes use vacuum compatible materials and adhesives, and offer virtually zero thermal dissipation from the probe. Probes are available with non-magnetic construction. Vacuum prepared probes are available for use with 4800 Series and 8800 Series Precision Position Sensors.

What is the role of the canister purge solenoid?

The EVAP system traps and recirculates this vapor so that it can be used as fuel for the engine, and prevented from polluting the environment. The canister purge solenoid is the component in the EVAP system that is responsible for “purging” the EVAP system, by acting as the switch that allows the vapor into the engine.

What kind of probes are used in vacuum chambers?

Linear position measurement over ranges from 10 micrometers up to 4 mm. Glass-metal probes provide low outgassing and high stability. Probes are small in size to minimize surface area in the vacuum chamber. Vacuum prepared cylindrical probes use vacuum compatible materials and adhesives, and offer virtually zero thermal dissipation from the probe.

What are the symptoms of a bad canister purge valve?

One of the first symptoms that a faulty canister purge valve may produce is a rough idle. If the canister purge valve fails and sticks open, it will create a vacuum leak that can affect the engine idle speed and quality.

Where is the throttle position sensor on a car?

Replacing the throttle position sensor on most car fuel injection systems is easy. It is out in the open on top of the engine near the air cleaner, and you just unscrew a couple of bolts and electrical connector, and replace it with a new TPS throttle position sensor.
