    Took my 2019 4runner to the mech and with the codes he thought it was purge valve. I tested the valve and it opens and closes so could it still be bad?

    Hi. Great video. Thank you. I am getting P0441, 455 and 456 on a 2007 Tundra 5.7 4x4. Would that series of codes lead you in a particular direction for the cause? Thanks so much!

    So I had the check engine light on and the VSC light. Code given was P0455. I changed out the purge valve and there was still a code. So I disconnected the battery and reconnected it , warning lights are gone but now my 4runner is idling super low and stalls out. What do you think?

    Thanks for the great info! I recently had to take out the supercharger intake manifold on my 2012 Toyota Tundra to replace a knock sensor wire harness that was chewed through by mice. The bolts of that intake manifold are an absolute bitch to get to. When I put the manifold back onto the intake I did not bother to replace the intake gaskets since they appeared to be in good shape. When I bolted the supercharger back on I was not able to get to a few of the bolts well enough to torque them down to spec. Now I'm getting P0455 (evap emission sys leak detected - large leak) P0441 code (evap emission sys incorrect purge flow). is it possible that now I have a leak coming from a loose/leaking intake gasket to cause these codes?

    • @HVAC_Mechanic
      @HVAC_Mechanic  7 місяців тому

      Usually, an intake leak will cause the engine to idle badly or give other codes. I would use a smoke machine to see if there was a leak. A lot of mechanics will start the engine and use a spray like WD-40 to spray around the leak location to see if the engine idle changes. If the engine idle changes, then there is a leak.

    What’s up man, quick question. After looking at your video the first thing I looked at was the gas cap and low and behold that the cap wasn’t tightened. I guess in my haste I didn’t screw it all the way tight. Now that I fully screwed it in should my check engine light disappear?? Thanks for the video.

      If the vehicle was manufactured before 2010, it can be cleared with a scan tool or by removing the battery cable. Many automotive stores will also clear codes for free. If it was manufactured after 2010, a Drive Cycle will need to be done before the code completely clears. Each vehicle has a different Drive Cycle which can be Googled to see what needs to be done. Usually, just driving around for 1-2 weeks will clear it, but if it needs to be cleared sooner, Google to see what the computer needs done.

      If the purge valve is stuck open, the motor will usually start, but depending on the vehicle, it can run rough and cause issues. I would look for another code or something else causing the problem, but if it's an EVAP problem, the purge valve is the only component that can affect the engine.

      It's usually nothing; it just will not pass an emission test. If the purge valve is stuck open, it can sometimes affect how the engine runs.
