hi, i broke the nipple of the purge control valve on my98 sti. its started to idle funny and when its parked in the garage and i warm it up, it tends to leave abit of smoke in the garage. also spotted some kind of water coming out of the exhaust, its defiantly water but seems like its mixed with petrol or maybe oil. correct me if im wrong.

Im after a purge control valve, subaru didnt have one in stock has anyone got one or a part number for it so i can try local auto parts.


Thanks in advance

 

Part numbers here fella:



FYI when I needed one, they were £175 (3 years ago...) from Subaru - and had to come from Europe apparently. Grade A or equivalent normally have them for about £40 although try one of the lads breaking cars on here. I put a newage one on in the end, the pipework is much more robust

 

ive been tryin to get hold of one from guys breaking cars on here but have had no luck so far. From the purge control valve, one vac pipe goes into the manifold and the second goes in the carbon canister at the front of the car. But the second pipe is just danggling there, not connected to anything, which is suppose to go to the carbon canister. where do i connect this? i know to te carbon canister but how as these are far apart and the pipe is on about 30cm long. so where was this originally connected?
