Hi thank you for this video! Do you know, can I remove the purge valve from the tubing and only replace the purge valve? I want to avoid having to dig inside to replace all the vacuums and wondered if I can just switch the valves without the tubes?

[@IHaveN0Clue]

THANK YOU. After having this problem for a long time and knowing what it was I finally have the money to fix it, and now that I have the part this was the absolute best video I have seen on it. This needs to be the first video on KZbin when you look this up

[@Atlridesharejay]

This was by far the best of these videos, thanks! That bottom one is the hardest to remove, but stick with it. I took the others out, removed the sensor as shown here, then you can rotate the bottom one enough so you can push the clips and get a 90 degree pick under the top and pull it up. Pops right out then. When goign back in, recommend a little lube on that one. Start it, then use whatever you have to get some leverage. I used a wrecking bar to get behind it and push it until I could snap the locking ring. On the purge valve, there's a piece of rubber where it mounts to the bracket. Don't forget to take that out of the old assembly to securely mount it on the bracket. Total time for a complete DIY'er: 1 hour.

Had this issue and let it go for too long. Now I'm freaking with other engine issues. Thanks for helping me replace this.

[@THEDriverMod_]

Sorry to hear that, what's the car doing? Maybe I can help

[@jcrbama]

Haha; you went to great lengths at around 2:30 to avoid saying that it sounds like your car is farting from the fuel filler. I'm happy to do that for you, if it doesn't want to start after fill up and then sounds like that car is farting, you have this issue. Also, that one clip down in the engine by the alternator is a huge pain to get at. If this happens again, I'll have a mechanic fix it just to avoid that grief. My best advice for getting that one off is to cut the hose, because you have to rotate the attachment to more easily get the tab pulled. It's nearly impossible with the full hose and fittings attached. To get it back on, get it in place and then take a very long and wide flat screwdriver and leverage it against the alternator housing to push the fitting fully on. It's brutal to try and do it with your hands alone.

[@THEDriverMod_]

I did because that's what it sounds like lol all good helpful tips for others watching this video!

[@hectorvalenzuela8817]

I’m about to buy only the valve, I’m a little concerned about the hose; did you have to cut the hose? Or you just pulled it out and put the new one in?

[@starkruzen]

@@hectorvalenzuela8817

[@starkruzen]

I just took the new valve to my local Auto Parts store and got a hose to fit the valve. It was a little bigger, but it worked. Good luck. I hear the cause is due to overfilling the gas tank. Do not "top-off" your tank. Once the gas nozzle shuts off that's good.

[@audioplugg5310]

My check engine light just came May 1st. Ran a diagnostic check and got a P1450 code. Bought the canister purge valve today and changed out the part thanks to this video. I didn't allow the light to stay on long enough to experience any symptoms.

Your video was the best one I found on this problem. Thanks again!

@Ruben Laugon mini pry bar. It was from a set I got from Harbor Freight. Nothing too big. I can’t remember if I had the clip open or closed when I snapped it on. I would play it safe and open it then close it when it’s on all the way and give it a tug to make sure it’s on good.

[@RaisingAwesome]

Great video! Glad you didn't do those edits you were saying as it helped to know how much of a struggle the yellow clip was to be. I ended up using hand pruners to cuts the old hose assembly out of the way. Since I could only get one hand in there on the yellow one, I bent the ear back and used a really long pair of needle nose pliers to twist the ear completely off. I could then push the yellow clip out with the picker one handed. I noticed for the new one, they changed the clip design, so hopefully the next time will be easier in 10 years.

So, ignorant question here, but... if it's the purge valve itself that's bad can you simply replace the purge valve without replacing all the tubing/connections? Is there even a way to disconnect the tubing from the valve itself? I'm guessing the routed tubing plays an important role in the function of the valve, but, since it's just conducting flow is it absolutely necessary to remove it?

I've been fiddling with it to try and figure out that bottom clip but it's hard to understand without also having the male piece to fiddle with. Does the grey tab pull out? Or do you just push the ears away from each other and pull the connector off?

[@GARice91]

Can I replace it and then drive to the auto store and get the codes cleared? Or does the code need to be cleared immediately after the repair, before driving?

[@THEDriverMod_]

It can be cleared at any time

@@THEDriverMod_ awesome, thank you for the video.

[@THEDriverMod_]

No problem! Best of luck

[@wilfredbroussard1442]

What do you do if after completion you still have the same issue?

[@THEDriverMod_]

Then that wasn't your issue or something isn't hooked up right. Or you got a bad part out of the box

[@psvradamlevine6215]

Have this on my 2020 ford fusion every time I put gas in it. It only does it when I put gas in it. Happen 3 times with it not starting up like it's suppose to. I get my parts on the 9th of March and will not be putting gas in it until I put the new purge/sylenoid valve in. No more evaporated emissions and I can put gas in without stressing 😌

[@Theclassiccarnut]

I believe you can purchase the Vapor Canister Purge Valve separately.

[@THEDriverMod_]

I've heard that as well but at the time I made the video, you could not

[@jaymuzikelsensacional]

Which code it had,? Cause I have a p2196 doce

[@THEDriverMod_]

I don't recall off the top of my head, did I fail to mention it in the video?

damn my 2019 joint just got that engine light 😐 it still got warranty tho i hope they fix it quick

[@THEDriverMod_]

Hopefully!

Yes it could!

[@jordanreyes603]

How do you take it off tho

[@THEDriverMod_]

Just takes fully releasing the clips, it's justba sweet spot you have to feel by hand.

[@YoungMonkei]

Can I just replace the connector on the 1.5L it’s the part that’s failing on mine

[@THEDriverMod_]

You can do what ever you want, this video pertains to the 2.0 ecoboost engines

[@cezargheorghe269]

Can you please tell me where did you buy the whole assembly? I called all auto parts stores around central and north jersey none of them have it and one Ford dealership only has solenoid. Thank you in advance!

[@THEDriverMod_]

I get it off Amazon, I linked it in the video description!

[@edgar_diy]

Had all 3 symptoms. The codes I pulled were P0496- Evaporative Emission System High Purge Flow P2196- O2 Sensor Signal Stuck Rich Bank 1 Sensor 1 My 2019 Ford Fusion Titanium 2.0 ecoboost called for part # HG9Z9D289D I saw a few comments on a Fusion forum saying you don't need to replace the hose with the yellow color head (save yourself the trouble!) I just snipped the zip ties and changed the 2 main hoses connected to the purge valve. The only tool I used was a small flat head screw driver. It took a total of 10 minutes to remove and replace the hoses. Once I reset the codes and started the car it sounded like it purred instead of the chugging idle sound it made for a couple of weeks now. If you don't have a scanner tool to reset the code just disconnect your negative terminal on the battery for about 5-10 minutes and reconnect. I just changed this today so I will update if the code reappears. Thanks for this video!

[@THEDriverMod_]

You're welcome. Great feedback

[@joeschmoe7864]

Great video man thanks

[@THEDriverMod_]

I appreciate the positive feed back! Happy Happy help!

[@daviddominguez1955]

162k miles and has only needed two purge valves?!?! If thats true, thats amazing. I know you go 12-14k miles with the Amsoil Signature Series, I am astonished. I guess the product delivers. I know ecoboost engines can be hit or miss in terms of long term reliability, that definitely speaks to the Amsoil product for sure!

[@halonet100]

Mine is 62k and I'm changing this little shthing😆 rn

[@THEDriverMod_]

Mine happened the first time at 75k

98k on mine ,16 fusion titanium and doing this for the first time.. thanks for the video hope all goes smoothly with my repair. Thanks again

[@quashaunsuitt8033]

What's the difference between purge valve and canister vent solenoid my p1450 says I need a canister vent solenoid

[@THEDriverMod_]

Same part, no difference, Same thing we replaced in this video

[@quashaunsuitt8033]

I was told it was by the gas tank

[@THEDriverMod_]

@quashaunsuitt8033 the canister itself is but the solenoid is in the engine bay

[@quashaunsuitt8033]

I gotta get the canister changed is there a video for that

[@quashaunsuitt8033]

Canister vent solenoid

[@baguette8617]

Smooth video, it was very helpful and provides a lot of information.

[@THEDriverMod_]

Thank you! Happy it was helpful and thanks for the positive feed back

[@jessebeatty9696]

Do you know a way I can rig it up so I only be able to change out the purge valve and not the hoses… this is gonna be my second time in a year since having this mkz it’s a 2013

[@THEDriverMod_]

I do not, maybe some hose clamps but I can't verify that for sure

[@tmh19sr]

Hi I was wondering if that is a Ford part? If so, what's the part #? Thanks

[@THEDriverMod_]

It's called the "tank vent valve" or "purge valve " I do not recall the part number unfortunately

[@falsedragon33]

Simple push tab he says. The bottom one cost me a good gash :)

[@isabelvelasquez7182]

My car does this sound after driving it for a couple minutes and I see my dashboard and the car seems to be trying to pull energy to stay on. I’ve checked it with a scanner and I get the code p2196. I thought that was the problem and got that part changed and it still did the noise and the part on the dashboard where one needle also shakes and my car shakes a little as well

[@The_jose716]

Hi my car has the same problem. Did you fix yours?

[@masalicio]

913-430 doorman sells just the purge valve now

[@DianaGarcia-fv9ri]

Hey I have a 2018 fusion se, the check engine light came on and the code was p0456. Every time I’m done pumping gas, the car struggles to turn on and won’t turn on usually after the 2nd or 3rd time, could this be related to the code I got?

[@THEDriverMod_]

Yes. This procedure will fix the issue

[@BigStretch254]

I’m having that same issue, does that canister valve in the description fit a 2020 ford fusion?

[@THEDriverMod_]

If it's a 2.0 ecoboost, yes

[@becksbongsandbuds]

Can we verify this worked for the 2020. I have a 2019 se 2.0. Just want to be sure

[@deniscaal7738]

Thanks for your help 👍

No problem. Glad it helps!

Great video, but a bit of warning.. if you are big of hand, that jump cut where the lower throttle body connection is removed is an hour+ long. :)

Great point!

So is not my fuel pump that need to be replaced? When it making that farting noise an don’t wanna crank when you trying to start it?

Correct. Just the purge valve as mentioned in this video
