Product Information

Mini Fuel Tank diagram for Cooper Paceman, Cooper Countryman

A fuel tank vent hose is part of the evaporative emissions (EVAP) system that allows fuel vapors to escape from the fuel tank and be routed to the charcoal canister for storage and later combustion. It helps regulate tank pressure, prevents fuel vapor buildup, and supports proper fueling flow when adding gas. A properly functioning vent hose is essential for emissions compliance, fuel efficiency, and safe tank operation.

• Difficulty refueling, with the pump nozzle shutting off frequently due to poor venting.
• Strong fuel odors, caused by cracks or leaks in the hose.
• Check Engine Light (EVAP-related codes), triggered by vapor leaks in the system.
