The purge solenoid is located near the passenger strut tower close to the firewall, its feed line runs next to the main fuel lines, its a little black box with lines either end and a two pin electrical connector. The one I had also had no fault codes and in the end we bench tested it and confirmed the pcm was holding the purge solenoid open at all times which, when filling up, will fill the manifold with vapour and cause start/stall rough running on initial startup after a fill but be fine evey other time. This is my experience hope it helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It didnt happen when I filled up this morning but it did overflow even after cutting out on the first click of the bowser. Homuch is a replacement PCM likely to cost me?? Is there no way of rectifying whislt getting a tune?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I would confirm the fault first before going any further Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
