Scotty Kilmer do you know where the Purge Valve for a 2015 Mustang Ecoboost? I can't find the info anywhere on the Internet!

[@davidtheinspector]

Hey Scotty! Your videos are a huge help to me. I Hyundai accent with a P455 I found that my charcoal canister purge valve in the back is failing intermittently. I ordered a replacement but it only has an inlet and slap filter with no outlet to connect to my charcoal canister. If I bypass my charcoal canister, what might that do? Would that be a problem? THANK YOU SO MUCH SCOTTY!

[@davidtheinspector]

***and small foam filter***

[@lekilatu9500]

Scotty Kilmer I hear a hissing sound coming from the right rear tire but my tire is fine.

[@Overallthesame]

Went ahead and did as you suggest and moving on to change the EVAP vent valve next, thank you Scotty you help real world people and enjoy doing it God bless you !

[@gregbernard4466]

I think the fuel filler neck is a common problem with the evap codes also. These tubes from the gas cap to the gas tank often develop rust and leak. Changed my solenoids for cheap and finally found the leak in my fuel filler neck.

[@gatorgotme]

Thanks Scotty, I can't tell you how many times you post a video of just my current issue. It's a talent, your timing!

[@buzoff4642]

Small or large EVAP leak needs a flow chart for checking. - gas cap, is it tight? if not tighten it - is there rust on the filler neck where the gas cap is supposed to snug? If yes, clean it up with emery cloth. - try replacing the gas cap. - etc.

[@cmccorkle4377]

If my vehicle code is reading P0455 and says large evap leak, and now when I push of the accelerator it's moves about 5 mph so I have to shut it off and wait a few mins, then turn it back on for full power. .. did u have this symptom from the gas cap ? Thanks

[@buzoff4642]

@@cmccorkle4377 No, it didn't. But gas cap is the easiest/cheapest to try. This sounds like such a large leak, gas isn't making it to the carburetor. Mine drove me nuts, turned out to be cracked fuel pump. Buried in the trunk under mat/spare tire, apparently none of the SOBs working on the car, over 3 years, didn't bother to check that.

Saving people money, you're a cool dude!

[@ScrewballMcAdams]

Lots of useful info in 3 minutes or less. Perfect for all the short attention span viewers like me. Thanks, Scotty. You totally get it.

[@jamesmcmillian9896]

I kept getting a large evap leak code p0455 on my 05 Ram . I replaced the gas cap the purge valve and leak detection pump before I made an interesting discovery. The check engine light only comes on when the gas gets below half a tank. I don't think I have a leak at all just a code when the tank pressure is low. So I just keep the tank above half a tank. So far it's working. Lol Dodges.

[@gonzogonzo876]

Scotty thank you for informative videos, being on a tight budget your information is a life saver. God bless, keep up the good work.

[@micahg2242]

Thanks Scotty! I tried a new gas cap and a new purge solenoid, but still getting the EVAP leak code, so this is my next thing to try!

[@Primifyy]

Did it work?

[@micahg2242]

@@Primifyy nope! and I still have that problem haha. I think it might be a small leak in the fuel line because it looks a little wet in a certain spot.

thanks scotty i also have a p0456 on my honda element so i was gonna change the vent valve but went ahead got a great deal on the whole charcoal canister with the vent valve and purge solenid already setup with it so i gonna just replace the whole so i dont have to do back in to fiddle with it later thanks scotty great work

[@therealrickdo]

Thank you so much! The wife's care has this code and when I checked the gas gap was not tight. Thank you thank you thank you!!

I have that code on my Camaro right now, no performance or gas mileage issues, but thanks for the info. Now I know where to fix next.

[@ronnietoni819]

Me too my gas cap always pop up I’m going to Walmart and change my gas cap

[@SoyJayP]

Scary, I got this code today and then you upload this video. It happened before with another video. The car said a few days before: "Check Fuel Cap" after filling gas tank so it must be the cap :D

[@scottykilmer]

not always, that's a generic code and often something else is leaking

[@davidmeyer8640]

It's a very generic code...my brothers car had that code last yr and the mechanic said it could be numerous things and he fixed what he thought it could be and he road tested it for 15 miles and check engine light didn't come back on so he gave it an emissions sticker but on the 1 mile road home the check engine light back on and it was the same code but we had the sticker so he kept driving it till it died 11 months later

Scotty, do ya mind if i call you scotty pimpin? You’re a legend man, we all appreciate you

[@brianbrewster6532]

Thanks again, Scotty! I shall try these tricks with my 2003 Jeep Gr. Cherokee. I'm tired of seeing that Check Engine light and besides which, it needs to pass NJ emissions test next month. I better get cracking on replacing the usual suspects. Also - you might want to mention to other folks that split or defective air line hoses can cause this P0455 code to rear its ugly head. Those are fairly cheap fixes, too.

[@Blue_Mudder]

yet another reason why it's good to live in a state that does not require emissions testing!

[@Mihalyofficial]

It may not be required but your car will throw an engine code regardless and has to be dealt with.

[@infringinator]

chevy decided to re-engineer this part...Dealer wants $180 for the part alone...I bought the original crappy engineered part for $17 lol...and to think with all that bailout money they wouldn't bend us over anymore? Money is the only reason this world is poop.

[@WCGwkf]

What van do you see for 100k? it must have a viper engine in it or something

[@cykablyat1466]

And people wonder why import cars have a strong hold here in the US. Ford decided that on a good idea with their explorers between 2008-2012 that if the clock spring or anything small goes bad or broken in the steering column to make it all part of the steering column so you have to pay $800 for a whole new steering column. Makes you wonder why every other car out there is a hyundai, honda, or toyota.

[@97markviii]

That's what junk yards are for, cheap and recyclable parts. Ford isn't in the business of making money on parts. After 10yrs most non critical parts are discontinued. That's where the aftermarket takes over if there is a high enough demand for it.

[@juice323blue4]

Is $300 too much for a mechanic to charge

[@OBZRV82]

[@MechanicalMikesRoadsideRepair]

How ironic. My friends check engine light came on. He has a '05 Honda Civic LX Special Edition. He had that piece replaced,I forgot that the gas cap could cause that. Linked this video to him since it explains this very well and he is not a car guy. Scotty and Eric are 2 of my favorite KZbin go to mechanics

[@1YankeeRose]

Hi Scotty, I have been maintaining my wife's car with your help. I have years of mechanical training BUT, I'm in your age group, so New Tech cars , with All those codes, you helped. Now I just hade a 455 code on her car , 2005 XG350 Sport Hyundai, I looked and I was able to remove the canister. BUT ! 2 things , !- valve was open when I blew through it, I'm guessing it should be closed, 2 One of hoes lines rusted right off, the pipe that fed the cannister is gone, . Question , Can i find, and fish a hose up to where it's coming from?. Left side (drivers) seems to go through wheel well and trunk. The rest of the hoses which look like the ones from gas tank filler nozzle, look ok. Thanks for your help. Elliot

[@bandittweintraub]

thank you!!! I was about to write you about this issue with our 2006 Chevy Silverado 1500 Crew Cab

[@realmaindrianpace]

I just fixed this problem on a late '90s Mustang. Evap leak. It was a rotted rubber hose on top of the gas tank, had to drop the tank to replace it.

[@Carlos-ri9ix]

Thanks Scotty. This code came on tonight. I'll buy a new part tomorrow.

[@lgoamity]

Going to need to read up on this for my car... Been getting a couple of these EVAP codes over the last few years... Swapping caps seemed to help but not any more... Suppose if it's an easy fix, probably going to cost less then having someone test the system, find a dozen other potential problems, or waste time looking for other bad seals or cracks.

[@lgoamity]

FINALLY(!) decided after all these months (years) to try replacing the Valve last night. It was so simple (even simpler then I expected, as some people with my model car need to unbolt/move the EVAP Canister slightly to remove/replace the valve.) I should have done it long ago. (Or last year even when I replaced my Fuel Filter and spent a lot of time in the same area under the Car) Now it's just a waiting game to see if the code(s) come back. Was able to "test" the Valve to see if it has "failed". Applying 12 volts to it shows it will open/close "properly"(?)... But now at almost 20 years old... as suggested in the Video it might have degraded some and not be seating/sealing correctly or some other fault(s)...

[@crand20033]

A smoke test revealed a leak from the top of the gas tank. Maybe from a valve in the tank. Gotta take the tank down to determine exactly where it's coming from. Might have to replace the whole fuel tank. It's getting really expensive.

[@blinkshadown]

had something similar, but i had the gas filler neck chipped from the rim. just bought the part for 60 bucks new. got myself a a wrench, screwdrivers and a ratchet. removed the old part and installed the new one, due to being a noob mechanic took me about 2 hours to replace it drove the car for 10 minutes stop and checked for leaks. drove for another 30 minutes and the light went off, the smell stood there for the rest of the day but next day the gas smell was completly gone and my mpg increased by 30-50 miles per tank it already paid itself with a matter for months spent maybe 75 with taxes for everything had to buy 2 hose clamps and new screws to hold the gas neck my old ones rusted out.

[@VendettaVinyls]

Hey, I've got a question if anyone may have any ideas. I've got a 2014 Cadillac ATS with the 2 liter turbo. Reading p0455 and p0446, replaced gas cap, canister vent solenoid, purge valve and the fuel pressure sensor. We've done multiple smoke tests, and found no leaks. In fact after a long length of driving with the tank below a quarter it actually builds pressure, and will blow air from the filler for 45 seconds or so before fuel can be added. Any thoughts?

[@DC3rising]

hi Scotty, I have a 2001 Chrysler Voyager Van. the mechanic fixed the problem but my check engine light came back a year later. it was a code of 0455 evap leak. but I also discovered that I had a bad evap core that needs to be replaced, is the bad evap core related to the evap leak? thanks Scottie

[@scottykilmer]

no, different systems, evap system is for gas vapors from the gas tank, evaporator core is the AC system

yes, often is

Hey I'm not sure what kind of car you have but my Passat had the same problem and it was the purge valve it fixed the problem for me now she's back in the shop for a timing belt that broke needed new valves 😭

[@ISS4935]

dont listen to scotty, vent valve issues will not cause hard starting after filling up. most likely your purge valve is stuck open

[@splash5974]

andrew scott Actually it is possible... Alot of people over fill at the pump. If you want to make your vent valves last longer, stop pumping gas the first time the handle clicks off! Most people round up to the nearest dollar or even couple dollars more. This leads to raw fuel getting into the vent valve and canister causing it to wear prematurely. Also,the raw fuel could cause issues apon restart. Ive pulled vent valve canisters that are full of fuel!

[@greygoosemafia]

You can test them with a handheld vacuum pump and multi-meter. Should be holding vacuum while not energized then once you introduce 12v its releases the pressure. if it doesn't hold pressure... then Its bad or doesn't actuate the solenoid, It's bad

[@davidjames666]

Scotty, why does the gas pump keep shutting off when i try to fill the tank at the gas starion? I have a 2002 chevy venture. I have no codes.
