A method, comprising: indicating leakage on a canister side of a fuel system based on a first fuel system pressure following applying a vacuum to the fuel system with a fuel tank isolation valve closed; and indicating leakage on a fuel tank side of the fuel system based on the first fuel system pressure and a second fuel system pressure following applying a vacuum to the fuel system with the fuel tank isolation valve open. In this way, an ELCM with a single reference orifice may be used to perform a leak test with two different thresholds for leak detection. This may allow vehicles currently in production to meet future emissions standards without costly upgrades to the ELCM.
