    Great video, only thing I would add after dealing with emission codes on my Cadillac Dts. Make sure you get GM genuine parts like sensors or a purge valve. I changed everything from a pump to the check valve and all the sensors. Turned out to be one of the cheap sensors wasn't working correctly and that was throwing my code.

    Wow I had a 2014 tacoma that started trying to stall out at red lights and difficulty starting after fuel ups and had to pump the accelerator while starting to get it to crank over. Went to toyota and to another mechanic and toyota did the 3 point fuel injection cleaning but didnt fix issue and other mechanic said put fuel additives in or use top tier fuel like Chevron but that also didnt help. I traded the truck in and all that time it was the fkg purge valve based on this video...funny part a friend who builds cars (works on his own vehicles) recently said the same thing. I swear getting a proper diagnostic that fixes an issue from a paid mechanic is nearly always a scam for a more expensive repair or to just avoid the work and get you off the lot for a diagnostic fee knowing they didnt fix the issue.

      Find your intake, observe and trace all the hoses less than an 1inch in diameter that lead away from it. The solenoid is as big as the palm of your hand.1 inlet, one outlet, and one electrical connection.

    .I hear a screeching sound coming from my gas tank and then my idle drops and it has cut off on me when slowing down to a stop. I thought this was the fuel pump so I replaced it and then shortly after it began again though the idle it stronger but it still drops my idle when it happens. Also, I replaced the purge valve solenoid as I get the error code for that off and on. Any thoughts?

    Hey Bro. My wife's 2003 tahoe started throwing the P0442 code last week. Vehicle ran fine for about 5 days. Today, I went out to start it for her(cold Idaho morning), and now it just turns over but no ignition. Anything you can tell me pertaining this code that would cause it to just not ignite? My Wie literally drove it the day before and no problems. Thanks in advance if you see this.

    • @HVAC_Mechanic
      @HVAC_Mechanic  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It should still start and run with a P0442 EVAP code; there must be another issue. If the purge valve gets stuck open, it may cause it to run rich or idle rough, but it would still run.

    So I have a 98 Nissan Sentra I'm getting a p0440 code, I don't smell any gas but I'm definitely getting les mpg than I should and my car is sluggish when accelerating, for some reason it seems like it's worse on a hot day, for example in the mornings when it's not too hot it's not so sluggish but when I get done with work and it's hot, at first it's super sluggish and as I start driving it gets a bit better? Any idea what could be my problem? Thanks

      @@renerubio5073 A P1448 code is the Vent Valve which is located on the charcoal canister. Evap codes usually don't affect engine performance much but sometimes can cause an issue. For example, if the purge valve is stuck open and there is a leak, it can cause an intake manifold leak. That is rare, but it does happen.

      The Purge Valve will be in the engine bay, while the Vent Valve will be under the vehicle near the gas tank, usually combined with the charcoal canister. Both would need to be tested to see if they failed.
