  • Looks like Ford is flipping the bird to mechanics and customers, this thing is ridiculous, even Ford Fans can agree...Probably.

    Just did a 2016 escape. About the same silliness. I put a dorman on so I can practice again.

      @@philsketball not the greatest reputation. I’ll use them if it’s easy to swap out, price on oem or better quality part is really high, or that’s all that is available.

    My wife drives a ‘16 Escape 2.0 turbo.
    The “engineering” in the engine compartment and around the cowl has me shaking my head…
    (Try doing a battery service or coolant reservoir top-up 🙄🤬!)

    My 2010 crosstour has it come from a tube in the tank that follows the fuel rail, up the firewall, into the small purge valve, with another hose that goes into the intake manifold. Very simple

      Yeah, most are pretty simple.

      Ya and it's not that simple on the escape of that year. It's turbo your crosstour isn't.

      @@metalsurgeon9196 what does it being a turbo have to do with anything, all a purge valve does is take vapors from the gas tank and put them into the intake

    My 2020 escape has 48000 miles and the purge valve is fucked. I'm getting it fixed and getting rid of this piece of crao.

      Yeah, they fail pretty often. Escape, Fiesta and Focus share a lot of parts.

    I have a 2017. What does this purge valve do exactly? What are the symptoms it's bad?

    • @JimmyMakingitwork
      @JimmyMakingitwork  Před rokem +2

      It will cause possibly a rough idle, lean codes and usually evap codes. P0171, P0455 and things like that.

    My 2017 focus ST has the same problem and the dealership won’t fix it even though it had a recall. I’m going to replace it myself, is it difficult?

    • @JimmyMakingitwork

      It’s not difficult, but the releases can be tricky and require some patience.
