PART
S INFORM
NOTE:
This parts table is a list of parts that are covered by this emission warranty coverage enhancement. It
may list more than one part number for a given Model/Model Year. For this reason it is required that the
electronic parts catalog (FAST or equivalent) be used to obtain the specific part number for a given
vehicle.
The parts listed on the following page(s) include a wide range of evaporative emissions vent lines and
