Where is this so I can replace it or figure out whats wrong with it? I am getting a 1008 DTC. Someone please advise.

 

Louie..

Its located near the TB up top the engine. there is a round plastic UFO looking thing sitting on a bracket with a small hose coming out the top and 2 big hoses off the bottom. Thats the EVAP canister purge colume control valve.

 

i got the same code and i took it out. but was wondering how do i open it up or the part number or how much it cost.

 

That post was over 6 months old. It turned out to be a a loose connection on the wire harness.

 

lol. ok when i do search i get yeid at and when i dont search i get yeid at . i didnt see any harness connect to the canister.

 

I'm having the same problem....and no wiring harness. I Took it off (the UFO shaped thing), blew into it, didn't get a whole lot of resistance before it opened, sprayed some WD-40, put it back on, and same code.

I'm stuck....if anyone knows, let us know!

 

Check all the vaccumm hoses to be sure they are connected properly and are not cut up. On most max's the EVAP solenoid is operated with vaccum.

 

Whats the valve in the back of the car hooked up to the black box ?? I was getting a code from some evap code that my macanic told me and I ordered a valve for that black box thats getting stuck ?? 96 SE

Its not the UFO shaped thing.. its a silver actuator behind it and below it. My car has a tan/orange colored connection there. in that area. Thats the wire connection!!!!

That solenoid for the EVAP is just above where the "STILLEN" letters are on my FSTB. In that pic it just looks like a metalic....thing.

Well you can't see it in this picture... But I was just thinking how nice my engine bay looks in the first picture as compared to the last.

 

the links aren't working. do u mean the black can on the side of the wall?

 

oh nevermind. i see it. i dont have that can thingy. is your car a cail spec or fed spec? that might be why. i have a cail spec.

 

no. go look at the vin number under your hood. its like just in front of the 2nd to last digit. My links worked fine when I just checked them.

 

the links work...the pics are small
I think I know what it is...

Sorry I didn't think you wanted to Down Load the 500kb picture.

 

the thing connected to the black box(EVAP cannister), is the vent control valve

 

Thanks... I think

If you have a Chiltons, there is a really good diagram on chapter 4 page 30. 4-30

It will show you the volume control valve and where the purge control valves are. You can see clearly where the harness fits in on the upper portion. This thing we are talking about is under the hood, not on the tank itself or anywhere near it.
