2002 Ford Taurus Canister Purge Valve Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How Can You Service and Repair the Canister Purge Valve on 2002 Ford Taurus?

  A: Service operations on the Canister Purge Valve must start with draining a portion of the cooling system fluid. Begin by removing the heater water hose and then proceed to disconnect each of the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) return tube, EVAP canister purge outlet tube and the vacuum tube connected to the EVAP canister purge valve. The presence of highly flammable fuel mixtures in all working areas that touch fuel components requires extreme caution because inadequate safety measures result in dangerous personal injuries. The EVAP canister purge valve electrical connector needs disconnecting before you remove the valve by unfastening its two nuts. Reinstall the system in the reverse order of removal and execute a leakage inspection of all system components. The verification drive of the EVAP system must be performed to confirm system functionality.
