When to Replace

A failing vapor canister purge valve can cause several issues. Consider replacement if you experience any of the following symptoms:

• Difficulty starting the engine, especially after refueling
• Rough or unstable idle
• Decreased fuel economy

Installation Tips

• Disconnect the negative battery terminal before beginning work.
• Locate the purge valve, typically mounted on or near the engine intake manifold.
• Carefully disconnect the electrical connector and vapor hoses from the old valve. Note their orientation.
• Install the new valve, ensuring the hoses and electrical connector are securely attached.
• After installation, reconnect the battery and clear any stored trouble codes with a scan tool.
• Start the vehicle to confirm proper operation and check for any vacuum leaks.
