EVAP Emissions Repair Service In Schaumburg, IL

Evaporative emissions (or EVAP) are not the same as the emissions released from your car’s exhaust. EVAP emissions are actually fuel vapors that emit from your vehicle’s gasoline or fuel when it burns. When gasoline in the fuel lines evaporates, it forms evaporative emissions. These harmful and volatile fumes are then released into the air. Express Auto Repair and Emissions in Schaumburg, IL performs evaporative emissions repair for your car, truck or SUV. Visit our shop today for expert EVAP emissions service!

The government regulates evaporative emissions by requiring vehicles to have an EVAP control system. The EVAP control system traps the gas fumes and draws them into the combustion engine to be burned safely before the fumes release into the atmosphere. This system is made up of a small, charcoal-filled canister where vapors are stored when gas evaporates in the fuel tanks. The vapors are then drawn into the engine along with fresh air for better combustion. If you need EVAP repair or service in Schaumburg, IL, call us today!
