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.

Technician A says that black exhaust smoke is an indication of a too-rich air-fuel mixture. Technician B says that white smoke (steam) is an indication of coolant being burned in the engine.
All of the following are true statements about flushingan A/C system after a compressor failure, except __ .a. the condenser must be flushed and the receiver/dryer replacedb. filter screens are sometimes located in the suctionside of the compressor and in the receiver/dryer.These screens confine foreign material to thecompressor, condenser, receiver/dryer, and connectinghosesc. use only CFCs for flushing. After the system hasbeen flushed, be sure to oil all components thatrequire itd. some manufacturers recommend replacing theclogged components and installing a liquid line(inline) filter just ahead of the expansion valve ororifice tube instead of flushing the system
