Saturn Vue Canister Purge Valves are the gateway to allow the stored fuel vapors to travel to the engine rather than the air to protect air quality and help ensure combustion efficiency. Positioned between the charcoal canister and intake manifold, these Canister Purge Valves open when the engine control module calls for a vacuum draw. Outside air sweeps through the activated charcoal, pulls hydrocarbons into the airstream, and sends them to be burned in the cylinders. Earlier versions on pre-OBD II models were primarily simple vacuum-controlled switches. Later versions evolved into solenoid-operated Canister Purge Valves that double as a diagnostic tool that is closed during self-tests so the tank pressure sensor can check the integrity of the system. Though the shape of the housing and the style of connectors changed with model years, the fundamental difference is that newer Canister Purge Valves have electrical feedback for leak detection while older versions do not. Drivers benefit since healthy Canister Purge Valves help the Saturn fuel cap to remain pressurized without venting gas fumes, keep the Vue emission light off, and maintain mileage. Across the production run, only one valve is applied at a time, so replacement calls for matching the correct part number for a given Saturn Vue engine size and build year.
