Thank you sir! Even my Ford dealership is trying to order the newer version of the purge valve for my truck. After seeing your video, I told them otherwise and they told me that I was mistaken. Thanks again!

Perfect diagnostic. Changed out and working like a champ for 3 weeks so far

Thank you a thousand times over ! Hey fellas this guy is like e.f. Hutton , when he talks you listen !

You are a hero man ! Please don't stop making these videos.

Absolutely the number one guy for anything 5.4 3v related. My 09 f150 started having issues with sucking 5 MTE for every .5 mile once my gas light would come on. Didnt think much of it the past 2 weeks since I had a regear and engine rebuild this past month, lo and behold I go to gas her up last night and it sounded like a loud gust of wind. My paranoia didnt let that go so I spent an hour at the gas station til I found this video tested it and the sucker is WIIIIDE open. Glad I caught it before my tank started to compress.

So it wasn’t the fuel fill inlet? You replaced the canister purge? I’m getting P0442. Smoke testing isn’t an option until after Christmas so I’ll try this test.

Thank you for the video! I was a little sceptical but it was super easy to change and it fixed immediately!! Saved me at least $300.00

Fixed the issue. Thanks for all the advice you post-much appreciated.

Thanks so much for this video! This is exactly what was wrong with my truck. The shop said it was a fuel cap malfunction, and on my truck, which doesn’t have a fuel cap, it would have cost over $400 to replace the stuff I do have instead of a fuel cap. I’ve ordered the part and will fix this next week when the part comes in. Thanks again!!!!

So your fuel inlet/hose was not the source of the leak? Did you get any specific codes? Any experiences since the time of this post? Thanks for sharing. I’m chasing ghost.

Thank you so much. This happend to me so many times, and my solution was pushing the metal port in the (easy fuel cap) in. to deform the tank and get the truck on again. I'm going to fix this asap.

Thank you so much for the video. I have a 2011 3.7 XLT and the “check fuel intake” code kept appearing every time i started the truck, the check engine light was on and my truck took longer to start after a fill up. I did the finger test and it was sucking air like no other. $33 replacement and it’s all good! Easy fix. Thanks again!

Grateful for all your tips and tricks. 🙏 thankyou brother! Almost sold my truck Untill I found all your videos. Thanks again and keep up the good work and content! 👊 cheers 🍻

I had this happen on my 2010. Started off with a code for a large air leak, then it changed into the "check fuel cap" code and displayed on the dash LED board. Tried the capless fuel cap clean out trick twice, to no avail, then researched the initial code and found this video. Stuck completely open, solved it easy in like, 2 minutes. XD So easy to diagnose. Part was a wee bit more than that up here in the Great White North, but it did solve the problem of the constant "Check Fuel Cap" code!!!

Do you recall the emission/vacuum leak codes you observed? I’m getting P0442.

Thanks buddy that's my problem for sures. Started doin it once and well after fill up but now every time I put gas in it takes about 4 trys to start. Part source wants 220 bucks ouch

Im getting a P0455 (EVAP system Leak Detected) Large Leak. Would this be it?

Hello the problem I’m having on my bosses 2013 is that it stops fueling up at 15.00 worth of gas I’ve change both the purge valve and the won on the canister wat can still be the problem please respond back

Would it be possible that the valve is on the back side? I have a 2010 4.6 3v and cannot seem to find it where you show on the video. I am almost certain I see it on the back side but not much space is given to remove it.

Excellent video, thanks. Have a 2010 F-150 with a 4.6L. Engine was idling rough after it was warmed up, died after 5-10 minutes of idling. Had to apply full throttle after filling up with gas just to get engine started. Had stuck lean codes for both O2 sensors. Replaced evap valve after finding tech bulletin for this, runs fine now.

Do you happen to know the part number? I have an 09 4.6 and im having trouble finding the part in this video

I have a 2010 F150 5.4L that is throwing a P0451 code. Could the purge valve be my problem? Or is it specific to the Fuel tank pressure sensor being bad?

My son's 1992 had the problem where teh charcoal canister was filling with gas and then causing the engine to stay. I put a new canister on it just to have it happen again so I plugged teh line leading to the vacuum. That fixed the problem for awhile but now it started pumping gas into the canister again so raw fuel was trikling on the ground. So now I have plugged teh line running to the canister and removed the gas filled canister. I wonder what complications this may cause? I migigt try to reroute the line back to the gas tank, so if it wants to pump fuel all over the place it will not be dumping it on the ground.

On my 96 explorer with a VMV, is the small vacuum control line to the solenoid supposed to be open at idle? I put a mityvac and it won't hold any vacuum. Basically a small vacuum leak, but nothing in the documentation says anything about it, don't know if its normal. Symptom is higher ltft, other things on that tee seem to hold vacuum. I don't think 96 run all the evap tests b/c there is no fuel level sensor, so the valve could be bad with no code.

Thanks alot. Youve saved me so much money over the years.

This will be work for Ford expedition 2007 5.4

Does this apply to 2012 Ford F-150 with 3.7 V6? Thanks

I have a 2009 5.4 f150. The fuel pump fuse shot out under the hood. It would sputter starting and was also sucking the fuel tank in like it had suction inside it. I have relocated that fuse, replaced the starter, replaced the fuel pump, replaced the evap purge valve. The tank no longer sucks in and it runs perfectly once cranked. The temperature has been back in the 60s this week and it sputters to start. Turns over great but acts like it is flooded. What else could it be? I hear of a cannister purge valve? Any other ideas? Is the evap purge and the cannister purge the same thing? I replace the one on the top of the engine with the two hoses.

Neither of those purge valves look like what is on the 2011 3.5 Eco Boost Engine on the F150. I had the warning light "Check Fuel Inlet" but no check engine light, with the analyzer I had a P0457 Pending code. I changed the purge valve and now I'm waiting to see if this has cured the issue.

I have a 1992 ford f-150 custom and my gas tanks are giving me problems. first it will only take gas really slowly and secondly now it's spewing gas from my rear tank. I'm sure it's the vent control valve but I'm not sure what to do any suggestions???

I’ve got a 2000 F-150 throwing code p1443. Comes up as purge valve solenoid. Can it be repaired or only replaced?

thanks tested valve with finger it sucked a red mark on it felt like it was stuck wide open

Please help me. I have 2010 f150 4.6. It's got a p1450 code (unable to bleed fuel up tank vaccum), and the other is p0443 purge valve circuit malfunction. I figured out exactly what's happening but don't kno the cause. When I start my truck and idle it's fine and the purge operates fine, but once I go on the road and the purge is commanded open, it stays open the rest of the time pulling a vacuum, whether at idle or running. But it can close back fine bc when I disconnect it it closes right back up. Is it a bad purge? Maybe the connectors on it, or is it bad wiring to the purge maybe? Or could it be the pcm but I don't think. Please help me out

My 2014 Raptor makes ticking noise inside the cockpit near the infotainment screen , does the CPV causes that kind of ticking noises constantly

I have a Ford F-150 3.5 ecoboost code p144c. I replaced the purge valve and at 85 miles the check engine light came on with the same engine code. What else can be the problem? Need your help,

I’m having this same issue on a 2005. Could it still The the same problem as the 09+ models?

Simple fix, small part causes big issues. I almost changed out the 02s, but decided to Google found this and it was my problem in my 2012

In hopes that you see this, I have a 2008 F350 SD with the 5.4 and I’m getting code P0446. I’ve changed the Canister vent Solenoid. Wires seem to be fine, what else could be the issue?

I am having stalling issues on my 2002 f-250 runs fine but as I drive sown the road it will die pull over and it will start back up im very worried my wife can't drive it now because it stalled 3 times in a row in traffic with her and my son. Also my gauge cluster stopped working checked fuses they seem fine no lights work and I'm getting a chime while im driving interior lights locks and radio works fine would you know a solution to that as well? Thanks for all your great videos and time!

I have a 2012 that had code P0446 which came up about a month ago. Two weeks ago in a snow storm the truck became stuck and had to be freed with a tow truck. Then all of the sudden the wrench light cane on gong down the road. I again put the engine scanner on and still only had the P0446 code. I crawled under the truck and inspected the drive shafts, steering and others soon crawling out I glanced up and seen that 2 wires had been just about broken through and they are beside the evaporation system. I spliced them together now the check engine light is out. Could those two wires shorting out cause a power train fault even though I could not find one? The truck acted funny if I was driving in wet conditions and the wires bing directly behind the drivers tire

Would this apply to a 2001 f150 5.4 randomly dies we put a new fuel pump still dies and no check engine light

I have a 2001 ford escape with p1451 code which is pointing me to replace canister vent solenoid valve but can't find it's location please help.

took my 06' E250 Van in for a smog today and mechanic tinkered around stating that there was a vacuum leak caused by the " purge valve " not being securely fastened onto top valve opening ( sorry if this doesn't make sense , I don't know all the technical " lingo ") anyways does this seem reasonable ? I now have to find/buy one and then take it back to get it complete . also when driving home I had a check-engine light pop up !! , it wasn't doing that at all before' , Kinda feel cheated....also where can I purchase one for my year/model ? ( cheap) any help is appreciated ....

Brian, HUGE fan of your vids. I have a 2007 expy 5.4 3v that I've had tons of probs. With. I found a canister just below the radiator drain that is busted. It's rectangular shaped (kind of) and is around 10"x5" with hoses coming off it I think. what is that canister??

Would I be getting very Bad MPG's because the output hose to the tank (return) is clogged pr squeezed?

I have a 06 f150 5.4 3v. When reversing and when I come to a stop it will stall. Now it doesn't do this all the time but it's embarrassing and very dangerous. What could this be?

good tip dident know how to test this but i do now thxs again

Replaced my stick open one then the new one started vibrating. I checked the connector and I’m getting fluctuating readings, so I’m thinking what’s controlling it is the problem and cause the first to fail. What readings should I be getting at the connector?

So I've got an f150 throwing up lean codes that's flooded on start if I shut the pump off with the pedal depressed it starts the I gotta rev it to keep it running.... I disconnected the evap it seemed better but now its not.... shot term is high and the long term was pegged it also showing a o2 stuck lean sometimes. It cranks but wont start any ideas?

I have a 2016 F-150, the idle high has a acceleration issue when its either too hot or too cold. It doesnt stabilize until its in a normal temperature. When I turn it off and back on again, it begins to accelerate as if it was cold again.

2004 expedition 5.4 wire plug casing has burn marks from the canister purge valve. Would bad purge unit cause this or should i look for other places for problems?

I only see replacements without lines. My lines are connected to the valve. Do the lines come off or are they one piece . Any advice is appreciated!

Thank you for the video. My 2010 F150 5.4 L engine stalled at outside of manufacturing warranty at 37000 back in 2012 Had to tow to dealership to fixed it on my expense.

How can I get him to watch my video on my channel i have looked everywhere to find out what's wrong with my 4.6 ... it's a clicking noise , not a cam phaser or injector it sounds like a relay near the radiator on the pass side ... and it's not the AC clutch ... I need help

My 09 F150 5.4 is having an issue where the RPMs surge 2-4 times as I'm coming to a stop, just like if I were to blip the throttle. RPMs fluctuate by maybe 200-300. It's never stalled or come close. It does this every time when in Drive, but when I drive in 3 or 2 it never does it, and runs perfectly smooth. In fact, the truck runs perfectly smooth at all times, no stalling or chugging. It only does this when coming to a stop. Once I stop, the idle is smooth as silk. Could this be the issue? It has all original timing components, zero timing chain noise, truck has 100k miles and is in fantastic condition. Also, it's never thrown a single code.

Hello thank you for the video!!! I have been having a problem with shuting down after i fill up and i have to stick my finger in the fill neck to release the pressure then its fine untill i fill up again if i dont fill up it doesent do it only codes i have gotten are my left and right cat efficiency below threshold and a few months ago a code for trying to vacuum fuel (somthing like that) i have 10 f150 4.6l 2v should i also replace the evap canister? Thank you for your time have a good day!!!

I have an evap code that I had checked by someone with a quality scan tool and it showed valve A stuck open. He was able to command it closed/ open with scan tool and view it in live data as operating. So the conclusion was bad computer, not valve. My question now, is if it’s possible that a bad valve would effect the reading by the computer? It seems correct that scan tool to valve communication proves that valve is operating properly and wiring is intact, but I don’t know how valve and ecm communicate. Code came right back after reset. Also, if it’s computer, would 8/80 emissions warranty cover that? What are your thoughts?

The sensor was at the back of my 2009 Expedition. It took 15 minutes to remove the sensor and replace it. Be sure to be patient when disconnecting the two hose guillotine connectors as you do not want to break off any plastic that could end up inside the engine.

I have 2014 F 150 Lariat with a 3.5L and my truck didn't do anything like that no black smoke nothing so I replaced it and my had the battery disconnected for about two hours and light still on, do I need to drive my vehicle more or pay 135 dollars at a dealership to clear it

If I drove around for 2 months with a decent evap leak then suddenly one day repair all the leaks 100%, would that cause the truck to run like crap until computer recalibrates back to proper air fuel ratio?

I took it off before starting truck Wasn't sucking when I started it.. Next I took it off when the truck was running..and it was sucking like crazy.. So..is it me?? Or is this thing bad..i have no codes..but can't fill my gas tank because something is wrong with the vent somewhere..

Hi and thanks for the video. I have a 1999 Ford F150 XLT 6 Cylinder. Recently my son was trying to find why my heater wasn't working. He pulled and tugged on everything. We finally found it was the switch inside and now it works. However afterwards the Service Engine Soon light came on. It comes up with the code P0443. So I watched this video and went out there and found the wires on the right were not pushed in so I snapped them in but the Service light is still on. I'm asking my friend to come back with the Code Reader to erase the code again. I hope that works. In any case thanks for the video. I'm so much smarter now! haha

I have a 2013 ford f150 5.0 the has a misfire cylinder 7-8 but we already did compression test was good 120 and all 8 cylinder replaced spark plug in coil still misfire on those two cylinder check pulse on the injector working fine what can I do next someone can help me

Between hearing what you and other online consumer reviews said about the purge valve staying open and allowing excess gas into the engine I'm about 99% sure that is the reason why my '10 f150 has shut down on me twice (once back in august and again two weeks ago) . I did have the purge valve replaced in december '17 after my check engine light came on so I'm starting to wonder if the purge valve is not the sole reason for the engine cutting off. Probably the best thing to do is have the dealer look at it again since the replacement work is under warranty.

Mine won’t start after fueling up I have to keep trying. Well this cause it ? The purge valve is sucking very loudly! Also have a hissing noise when putting the gas pump in

I replaced mine and it still turned off on me at a stop light. Idk what else to do. It’s done it ever since I bought brand new. Dealer couldn’t figure it out when I still had warranty.

Awesome, been trying to figure this out on 05 e150.

I came across and E150 . Everytime the owner would fuel up it wouldn't start back, it would stall if it was running, if it sat for a while it would blow black smoke out the tailpipe with a rough idle and leave a carbon smell . The codes flashed everything on another shop changed a ton of parts ,FPDM, FPS, Pump etc because of this.

Where is the Purge Valve location on a 2013 Ford Fusion?

Just got a 09 f150 they cleared everything at dealership I knew it was idling rough had it for three days and check engine came on and started dying when I came to a stop I knew I had a fuel issue looked at my tank it's caving in you explained everything that's happening to my truck

Once again…. Hit the ball out if the park. I was just told that I have that same issue on my 2017 F150. Bad part is I was also told that it takes “2 hours” to complete the repair. Smh. $400 bucks to do it. Plus clearing the codes. Smh. I’m thinking that the estimate is higher than it should be. Any thoughts?
