Hi all,

I've had the Canister Purge Valve replaced twice now on my XR6T to resolve idle/stalling dramas but have had no results at all despite my dealer showing me (several times) Ford's TSB that this is the fix!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My dealer seem convinced this is the problem but FordTech informed me that because this Purge Valve Solenoid is controlled by the ECU ... its the actual software which is to blame ...

Can someone please explain to me what the Canister Purge Valve Solenoid does and how it has the ability to disrupt the idle speed or make the engine stall????????????

All explanations would be greatly appreciated :ta:

Hi guys,

Fordtech asked me to relay a message for him regarding this issue.

He said if any of you guys are going to calder tonight he will be more than happy to explain and show you the ins and outs of the problem there. As for the people that aren't going I'm sure he will post an explanation here as soon as he can. :ta:

Edit: Don't ask me how you'll know where to find him, sorry don't think we thought that far ahead! :tv:
