I like the Dorman products that I have used for years with proper fit and operation.

I did have to ask fellow customers of Amazon.ca on a ticking matter concerning this Dorman Purge Valve and all the answers were very helpful in one way or another. I wasn't exactly sure on how a purge valve worked and quickly learned that it purges gas fumes into the engine to be burned upon combustion instead of releasing into the outside air. Awsome!Did not know... was that when initially installed (new) that after the engine warms up this valve will make a ticking sound; meaning that the little pump inside it is working until it reaches the pressure that it's supposed to reach and the ticking noise will stop. If it doesn't stop ticking, that tells you that you have a leak in one of your hoses. In this Dorman purge valve there are two hoses. In a tightly sealed system, hoses are good, pump is good, this purge valve will kick in every now and then when it is supposed to.The reason I did change my purge valve, old to new, was that I was getting a lot of gas fumes and what seemed as though my engine were flooding. Not all times but every now and then. Sometimes even stalling as though my engine couldn't idle.I am very pleased with how this purge valve is working and very thankful for answers I did receive upon my query.

In troubleshooting a 2001 Dodge van, this part was replaced along with the leak detection pump, some hoses, and the gas cap. It turns out there was a small leak at the top of the gas tank, which Seal-All patched so the vehicle would pass inspection. Even though this purge valve was not the part that was causing the problem, it was installed at the time of the vehicle inspection, so it allowed the vehicle to work properly and keep the codes off. If you know you need this part, this one works fine. The one I received was made in China.If you would like to read how I fixed the problem, read on. This started with small leak code P0442, but I couldn't find anything with a smoke test, so I followed other internet advice and started looking at the purge control solenoid and the leak detection pump. I disassembled and cleaned them, and thought I reassembled them correctly, but then I started getting codes P0441, P0455, and P1494. Figuring my old parts were now malfunctioning, I bought replacement parts, but still had codes. I performed smoke tests before and didn't find anything, but then saw smoke at the leak detection pump filter. This is normal, since the port to this filter is open when the car is off, and presents the largest "leak" when smoke testing. In order to seal the system, this port must be plugged. I disconnected the large hose going to the leak detection pump (not the one going to the filter) and shoved in a screwdriver with a handle that plugged the hose. Now when performing the smoke test, the system was sealed and smoke was quickly seen when the gas cap was removed, and when pulling other hoses to check. With all of the hoses connected and the gas cap tight, smoke came from the top of the gas tank at a molding seam near a hose connection toward the front of the car. I dropped the tank and applied Seal-All to the hole, which fixed the problem, turned off the codes, and allowed the car to pass inspection. The smoke test was nothelpful until I plugged the large hose to the leak detection pump. Of course, once the diagnostic work is complete, unplug and reattach all of the hoses as they should be for normal operation. This is the smoke tester I used: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08HY3RNFS

Se menciona que es Dorman, al recibirlo lo instale pensando que era lo que se mencionaba, lo cual nunca funcionó, cambié toda la línea Evap confiando que la válvula era la correcta, seguía con el código P0455, tuve la necesidad de comprar una máquina de humo y no había fuga alguna, después de calentarme la cabeza y haber revisado todo el sistema, tuve que acudir en AutoZone y comprar la válvula igual Dorman, asimismo una bomba de vacio, mi sorpresa es que al realizar la revisión verifique que eran diferentes en varios factores, 1.- la de AutoZone viene marcada con letras Dorman, la que se vende por este medio se ve que es genérica.2.- la de AutoZone al poner el vacío sella por ambos lados y la que compre aquí no retiene dicho vacío.Soy poco de dar reseñas, pero está venta es totalmente fraude, soy comprador asiduo de Amazon y confío siempre en las ventas que adquiero, ojalá pudieran verificar este tipo de situaciones, no creo que tantas reseñas negativas sean por nada.
