Where are we all on this device

It is actually the EVAP purge solenoid for the gas tank. Most of the Slingshots do not have anything coming from the gas tank connected to it, however there are some that do have the vent line from the tank going to it. Under certain conditions the valve opens and allows gas fumes from the tank to enter the engine to help with evaporative emmissions from the fuel tank. On a usual E67 or E37 ECM a check engine light eventually comes on if it is not plugged in, but I am not sure of that on the MEFI controllers. If you do not have a hose plugged into the other end then you could remove it and plug the intake manifold hole without a problem (just the possible check engine light, which could be worked around also).

Hope that helps,
Dave

I see. So this will now become part of the ever growing pile of parts I have removed from the SS.

Thanks for the reply. I ran with it unplugged for a week at least and never had a check engine light. Then I started having those thoughts run through my head that maybe it was running different. I know it's a mind game. But I can't help myself.

Unplugged mine yesterday afternoon and now I have a trouble code. ( O 660 15 ) with a 5 under it. Plugged back in and after about 6 restarts has not reset yet. So what is the trouble code for, anyone?

Never even seen it.. Were is it located?

I agree if you don't mind looking at the light all of the time. It did finally reset after about the 12th time. Probably can just read the resistance across it and jump out with right resistance. That is for someone else to do, not me. Not enough info.

I wonder if Rab's isn't throwing a code because his ecu was remapped. Maybe Bob can answer that.

I have Bob's tune also, but I am NA.

I really don't think Bob plays with the check engine codes. There is no reason to go there for what he needs to do.

I would just leave it plugged and forget it. Its useless but its not like its presence causes a problem.
