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

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.

FAQ

A failing vapor canister purge valve often triggers a Check Engine Light (CEL) with EVAP system fault codes. You may also experience difficulty starting the engine immediately after refueling, a rough idle, or a noticeable decrease in fuel economy.
This valve serves as a direct replacement for OEM part numbers 12610560, 12690512, 12661763, 55593172, and 12597567. It also cross-references with aftermarket numbers 911-082, 214-2137, 214-1680, CP612, CP702, PV479, and 2M1113.
This purge valve is compatible with a wide range of Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, GMC, and Saturn vehicles, typically equipped with 3.0L or 3.6L engines. Common applications include the Cadillac ATS, CTS, SRX, and XTS; Chevrolet Camaro, Equinox, Impala, Traverse, Colorado, and Canyon; GMC Acadia and Terrain; and the Saturn Outlook.
The installation is generally straightforward and can be completed by most DIYers in 15 to 30 minutes. You typically only need basic hand tools, such as a socket set or screwdriver, to remove the engine cover and disconnect the electrical connector and vacuum lines from the old valve.
Purge valves are mechanical components that cycle frequently to manage fuel vapors. Over time, the internal diaphragm can tear or the solenoid can become stuck due to carbon buildup or debris from the EVAP system, preventing the valve from sealing properly or opening when commanded by the engine computer.
If you are replacing the valve due to an EVAP system code, it is good practice to inspect the vacuum hoses connected to the valve for any signs of cracking, dry rot, or blockages. Ensuring these lines are clear and airtight is essential for the entire EVAP system to function correctly.
