Q: How to service and repair the evaporative emission canister purge valve on Ford Explorer?
A: Service and repair of the evaporative emission canister purge valve begins with putting the vehicle in NEUTRAL position and hoisting it. A disconnect of the battery ground cable prevents electrical sparks from occurring because the EVAP system contains fuel vapor with ignition potential. The service begins with disconnecting the EVAP canister purge valve electrical connector before removing the two vapor tube quick connect couplings. The valve must be detached first from its bracket before removing it from the vehicle. Execute the process of valve installation by following the reverse steps of removal. Perform a leak test of the EVAP system before conducting an evaporative emission repair verification drive cycle to check the system's correct operation.
Q: How to service the evaporative emission canister purge valve on Ford Mustang?
A: Start the service of the evaporative emission canister purge valve by disconnecting the battery ground cable because fuel vapor can cause explosions or fires. You should disconnect the electrical connector that runs to the EVAP canister purge valve. When working with the upper vapor tube, either replace or remove it properly by connecting its identification-tagged end to the upper EVAP canister purge valve port. People must disconnect vapor tube quick connect couplings from the EVAP canister purge valve port before using the release tab to unmount the valve from its bracket. Executing new valve installation requires following the reverse order of removal procedure. Post-installation requires a leak check on the evaporative emission system followed by completion of the evaporative emission repair verification drive cycle.
Q: How to service the evaporative emission canister purge valve on Ford Ranger?
A: Service procedures for the evaporative emission canister purge valve start with disconnecting the battery ground cable because fuel vapor presents an explosion and fire risk. Start by removing the canister purge valve from its bracket followed by disconnection of vapor tubes and electrical connector until you can take out the valve. The installation of the new valve will follow the opposite sequence of removal. Proper functionality of the evaporative emission repair system requires post-installation leak tests followed by completing the recommended verification drive cycle.
