Description
Product Overview
Genuine DENSO EVAP purge solenoid valve for fuel tank ventilation. This used OEM part controls the release of petrol vapours from the charcoal canister into the intake manifold, helping to stabilise idle, reduce evaporative emissions and prevent fuel odour around the vehicle.
Compatibility
Suitable primarily for Citroën C1 (I) & Peugeot 107 (I) with 1.0i (1KR-FE) petrol engines. Always verify fitment by matching the OEM product code; if the code matches (see Technical Information), the valve will generally fit regardless of manufacturing year or minor facelifts.
Symptoms Of Failure
- Unstable or fluctuating idle
- Increased fuel consumption
- Smell of petrol near the vehicle
- Check engine light illuminated and EVAP-related fault codes (e.g. P0441, P0443)
Common Causes And Function
The EVAP purge valve regulates controlled flow of fuel vapours from the carbon canister to the intake manifold. Failures commonly occur due to mechanical sticking from deposits or carbon build-up, or electrical faults in the valve coil. A correctly functioning valve helps the engine control system maintain proper air-fuel ratio and emissions control.
Replacement Guide
Location: In the engine bay near the intake/throttle body, connected by two vacuum hoses and an electrical connector. Basic replacement steps:
- Disconnect the battery before starting work.
- Remove vacuum hoses (inspect and replace aged clamps if needed).
- Unplug the electrical connector and unfasten the valve from its bracket.
- Fit the new valve in the correct flow orientation, reconnect hoses and electrical plug.
- Clear stored fault codes and perform a test drive to confirm proper operation.
