I changed the purge valve and I now want to know whether it works nonstop the entire time or does it work in intervals? I mean from the moment that the car is started until it is turned off.

The dealer said that I need to replace the purge valve on my E-320, 2005. I have located the valve, but I'm not sure how to disconnect it from the tubes or the power. One tube has a clamp and the other is very tight, but w/o a clamp. Do I need a special clamp tool? The power connection has a wire clamp that I haven't figured out how to remove. What is required to disconnect the power? Thanks, and reply to rshargis@tds.net

Just clean the purge valve today as per ohlord's instruction. I think the job is too well done, now I cannot hear/feel any tapping on the valve. There were lots of carbon deposits on the exit side (front tube) of the valve, I wonder how black is my intake manifold.

Thanks to ohlord for providing the expertise and location pics.

Take care and enjoy the ride,

Does topping off the gas tank ruin your purge valve quicker? or are you referring to topping off the tank some more after its already full?
