i went to the local advance auto store because i have had a cel come on and off for the past couple days and the store told me it was something with the evap valve? Can someone explain and tell me how to fix it? Also i got my car tuned by m dub and noticed once i went to get gas and go to crank my car up it doesnt want to crank for some reason. It never did this til i got my tune. I only us shell v-power (93 octane)

 

Sounds like you need to replace the evap purge solenoid that's on the intake manifold. It's right on the front of it on top held in by one 10mm bolt - it has a line running to it and an electrical connector.

It's about $20-$25 and maybe 3 minutes to replace it.

What code number did they pull exactly?

the people didnt say. The guy has been known to think he knows everything about a car that checked the light for me....

Where can i get it from? Does it hurt my car with it being bad rightnow?

 

My fuel trims were all out of wack when the the Evap Purge was acting up. It's not horrible but not necesarilly healthy for the car.

Get it fixed. Not a hard fix or anything. Just money and a few minutes of your time.

Someone sucked at designing these.

 

can i get it at advance auto parts?

 

I believe you can only get it online or at the dealership.

Might ask Crate engine depot for a price shipped

 

is it a canister purge soleniod

 

get it off rockauto.com they are pretty cheap and I get most of my stock replacement pars there.

 

This. I bounce between CED and RockAuto.

 

all the rockauto says is the canister purge solenoid. What part of the car is it? like emissions? or what i know its on the intake manifold.

 

Purge Solenoid:



Purge Valve (#26 Under the car, under the gas tank):
