The purge valve is ECU-controlled and opens to purge fuel vapors from the charcoal canister into the running engine for burning. The valve also serves a diagnostic purpose, as it remains closed during onboard tests that check for fuel vapor leaks to the atmosphere. A failed purge valve can cause engine performance problems and store diagnostic trouble codes, commonly P0441.
Replace your faulty purge valve to clear codes and keep your emissions system sealed. This kit includes hose clamps to replace your factory one-time-use hose clamps.
