ABSTRACT:
A leak detecting system for a transpiration purge system including a fuel tank1and a canister13includes a jet pump8, which leads the atmosphere into the fuel tank1using a return flow of excess fuel of fuel pumped to an internal combustion engine, internal pressure measuring means15, and fuel volume detecting means18. After intaking air via pressurizing means for a predetermined time, the leak detecting system judges that a leak is present when a holding pressure measurement value in a state in which the transpiration purge system is closed is lower than a decompression calculation value calculated from a pressurization measurement value, an air volume, and a leak hole diameter.
