Nice to see the actual high mileage guys (100K+), which shows the longevity of the STs, Going on 55K on my 20' ST. Recall on 360 done, purge valve replaced. No major issues (knock on wood). Currently a daily driver, averaging 250-300 miles a week.

I'm glad you brought that to surface. I always at least round off to the next dollar, sometimes more. I'll stop doing that.

Good to know. Thank you! Won't do it again

Okay. Good to know. This is the first time I've over filled it. Just found it bizarre that it was capped at 275 these last two times. Thanks

It will never be consistent. Anything could have effected the range of the tank. Also, never fill the tank up, or continue to click the gas pump after it stops the first time, great way to make your Purge Valve fail on these cars.

It constantly recalculates…the real issue is overfilling it like you said you’re doing will trash the purge valve and you’ll be changing that soon if you continue.

Yeah, one downside is he is busy. Sounds like you did plenty of logging for the tune. He may be focused on the engine more than trans. He may have a different set of PIDs to log for transmission. I would reach out to him and specifically mention the shifting and see if he wants to log something...

...and intake and he sent a revised tune after about a week of sending in a log. Going to do a log after I bring the car to the dealer for purge valve CEL. One thing that is slow is getting a response from Adam. I am sure he is a busy guy, but a week for a return log or days for an email reply...

Yeah it’s Evap purge valve, did it myself. A bit of a pain but possible. Fix the code and issue.

You’ll be perfectly fine without the tune. Those mods don’t require a tune just help power with a tune.

Today a CEL came on, codes are P0456 / P0496, which appear to be the purge valve. I am thinking of bringing it to the dealer to get it done quick instead of a shop I normally go to that is about 25-30 miles away. Guessing they will flash the car, so my question is, with my mods, if the car is...

...detected , very small leak). so I cleared the code, cleaned the gas filler door area when the filler neck goes into, they located the purge valve connections (found a diagram online) and rotated the fittings in place while they were connected and checked to ensure they were still clipped in...

...engine light recently came on. The car is difficult to start after fueling. I refuled it while it was running and I think I broke the purge valve. I am getting the following error codes: P0496 P2196 The dealr wants at least $1000.00 to fix it. Does that sound normal? I can see the part...

Another update. ST still smokes after sitting. I keep buying Explorers because I really like them but this is getting nuts.

Hey guys, thought I’d join the “club” here. Had the same issue. Showed a CEL. Have about 30k for reference. Took to dealer. Had a faulty purge valve. Had it replaced. Hoping that was the source of the issue. oil catch can was recommended. They can install at the dealer.

Where is the valve located?
