Emissions Check Valves? Posted by Larry West [Email] (#1140) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Larry West) on Thu, 9 May 2013 06:39:38 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Tracking down all the possible culprits for a P0455 code that i get intermittently with my 2000 SE with the B308E. I'm aware of the $161 purge valve, and that some of the check valves succumb to age and get brittle.
Browsing the EPC and WIS last night, I came across only one check valve with a part #9189564, but not in the ELCD description. I think it was in the PCV system description.
Diagrams of the ELCD appear to show two more check valves, but I can't dins them in EPC. Are they all the same?
I'm planning to try to clean the purge valve and see if that helps. Hard to say, as I only get the code intermittently, but I may put off replacing the valve until the car comes up for NJ emissions inspection in July of 2014. I'll also inspect the check valves and lines.
Has anyone had to change the shut off valve near the gas tank? I'd hope that much larger valve would last longer...
