    Purge valve problem

    the purge valve was clicking really loud so I changed it but the new one started clicking as well. I thought maybe the new one was bad so I exchanged it but that one clicks loud as well. Is there any other reason the car would make the purge valve click on and off repeatedly and loudly? It...

    Fixing cylinder head
