What causes an EVAP solenoid to fail?
Causal Failure Factors A leak within the emissions system may be a sign of solenoid failure. The purge control valve reacts to the vapor vacuum within the canister by opening and closing. In addition, the solenoid’s electrical portion can fail, resulting in the valve remaining closed.
How long does a purge valve last?
If your purge valve is on the engine, the replacement time is shorter at about 30 to 45 minutes. The intake tubing would have to be removed so it can be accessed. If your purge valve is located next to the fuel tank, replacing it would consume around 1 hour and 30 minutes to 2 hours.
How often are purge valves bad?
Normally the canister purge solenoid lasts the life of the vehicle, but it can wear out from time to time. If the canister purge solenoid starts to go out, the Check Engine light will come on and your car will not pass an emissions test.
