okay, I changed my knock sensor, 02 sensors, & fuel filter....

I get the 0111 code today, I can sense the car running very weird ... What the heck do I do? Where do I start?

 

I think it may be a problem with the fuel filter somewhere...must go and check it now

 

okay, checked the fuel filter...everything OK there...

help, anyone?

 

It's a EVAP code Sam. Check the EVAP thing that's blocking acces to the one spark plug, maybe loose connector. If that's not it, read my PM.

 

0111
Diagnostic Trouble Code 0111 is detected when ...
- EVAP control system does not operate properly.
- EVAP control system has a leak in the line between intake manifold and EVAP control system pressure sensor.

Possible causes include ...
- EVAP canister purge volume control solenoid valve stuck closed.
- EVAP control system pressure sensor and its circuit.
- Loose, disconnected, or improper connection of rubber tube.
- Blocked rubber tube.
- Blocked or bent rubber tube to MAP/BARO switch solenoid valve.
- Cracked EVAP canister.
- EVAP canister purge volume control solenoid valve.
- Closed Throttle Position Switch.
- Improper connection of one-way valve.
- Blocked purge port.
- EVAP canister vent control valve.


This is a "jackpot" code. It points to so many possible causes as to be almost useless. It may be accompanied by another DTC which is more specific.

 

hey thanks...from your pm i get the feeling that you know something about this... i do have one hose that is ripped right by the strut bar & throttle body . . .i'll send you a pick and maybe you can tell me if that has anything to do with it... but it was ripped for the past 4 months and nothing happened before... i will try to work on it this week.

 

yeah, i got that far too ....

 

Big D you are the man...
I d/l that neat thing you sent me & the answer was right there.... there is a little hose coming into the EVAP Canister Purge Control Valve, when I put my strut bar on, I ripped it. Funny thing is that it was ok for months & now it went bad... Now I just have to find out what the name of that little hose is...

Thanks Again!

 

Maxedoutofcash can you send me the pm as well. I need to possibly replace my purge control valve since i'm getting the same code as well. Thanks.

 

You know I have had this same problem. I fixed my O2 sensors and my Knock Sensor and within 2 weeks I got the 0111 code. I haven't had any idea how to fix it or where it was even located. Big D or someone else could you send me the PM. Thanks alot.

 

guys... all Big D sent me was a diagram of the evap... i will scan it for you since the host is unavailable... but it won't be until tonight.

 

ok thnx....

 

It was much more than the diagram Sam but I guess that's all that is needed for the fix. Am I good or what? Keep in touch man.
