Human genetics: Pleiotropic mutations. Hannah Stower. A large-scale analysis of SNPs and genes that are reported to be associated with common complex diseases and traits has found abundant pleiotropy: that is, each individual gene mutation may have a role in multiple diseases. large-scale analysis of SNPs and genes that are reported to be associated with common complex diseases and traits has found abundant pleiotropy: that is, each individual gene mutation may have a role in multiple diseases.
EVAP Vent Valve. The evaporative canister vent valve not only allows the fresh outside air to the EVAP canister during the purge modes, but also allows the diagnostic to pull a vacuum on the fuel tank by closing the vent valve. This valve is normally open. EVAP Canister.
One side of the vent valve is connected to the charcoal canister. Another side is connected to the vent hose that has a filter or screen at the end and is attached to the car body or frame. In some cars, the vent valve is attached to the canister. In others, it's installed separately near the canister. The vent valve is controlled by the engine computer (PCM). Normally the vent valve is open. It closes when the engine computer tests the EVAP system for leaks.
