ABSTRACT:
A vapor storage canister protection system that prevents tank overfill and prevents canister contamination when the vehicle tilts significantly from the horizontal, using a single valve to perform both the overfill and tilt protection shut off functions. A series of switches sensitive to when vehicle is being filled block the canister vent line at the end of fill, and then reopen after a short, timed duration or when the vehicle is restarted.
