- In Mazda Tribute and Mazda 6, the stuck

Among common possibilities for loss of power are throttle body faults (electronic throttle controls, mass airflow sensor, torn air intake hose), worn out spark plugs, faulty fuel pump or restricted fuel system, and large vacuum leaks (including EGR malfunctions, PCV system, leaking intake manifold, leaking
EVAP purge valve).
Your car has a

The most common cause of hard or no start after getting fuel is due to a
leaking purge valve leaking vapors into the engine when refueling.
The issue could be the evaporative emission vent
purge valve on the vapor charcoal canister.
From the symptoms and the timing of it happening after the fuel neck repair, my first guess would be during the repair a fuel - related vacuum leak of some sort was created, maybe a hose came loose during the repair, possibly at evap cannister or
vapor purge valve.
I will now be looking for a new garage to service my vehicle as they had 6 attempts at trying to resolve the issue including what they said was a
new purge valve installed, My suspicions are they never did put in a new valve, but used an old valve instead, out of some other vehicle.
I recommend using a sniffer that is used for butane and check for a fuel leak around the
vent purge valve and see if there...
The evaporative
emissions purge valve takes fuel vapors in the tank and introduces them into the engine in an effort to reduce emissions.
I've already put some money into it, I got the fuel pump, fuel pump relay, the alternator, ecm, and
purge valve fixed.
In my research, I found that another common symptom of a
failed purge valve in addition to the check engine light is difficulty starting after refueling.
engine light came on and went to auto zone for code it said it was canister
purge valve so I was wondering how hard they are to change
Cause: The affected vehicles have fuel vapor canisters
whose purge valves may not operate properly resulting in abnormal pressure changes in the fuel tank.
The radio has been replaced 4 times, the ac repaired and still does not cool, the radar, rack and pinion replaced, the fuel pump replaced, a fuel
purge valve replaced not fuel mileage is terrible.
Learn how to use a defog solution to keep your mask clear, and choose a snorkel with an

Another common reason for the EVAP - related Check engine light codes is a
faulty purge valve or a gas cap.

Your car has a
small purge valve with a purge solenoid in the Evaporative Emissions system that controls the venting of fumes from the fuel tank as these fumes build up inside, particularly when you are refueling the car with...
You must have a
leaking purge valve that is letting fumes that build up in the fuel tank when refueling the truck.
It sounds like you may have a bad vent or
purge valve in the evaporative emissions system.
Thanks for the informative video relating
the Purge Valve issues.
I got
the purge valve checked up and it ran fine for awhile...
It sounds like you are getting an alternative source of fuel through
the purge valve.
Hard / no starts after fueling definitely sound like
the purge valve is stuck open.
An exhaust back pressure test will verify a restriction, and if you have double digit negative fuel trims that go away when
the purge valve is blocked, that should tell you if the purge valve is stuck open.
I have ordered
the purge valve but it has not arrived yet.
This made me suspect that
the purge valve may be the culprit.
Both the EVAP vent valve and the EVAP
purge valve both need to be working correctly.
The system will have a vent valve,
purge valve, charcoal canister, control valve and hosing with its associated wiring to operate the valves.
The purge valve solenoid and vapor canister were contaminated with fuel.
Since
the purge valve is located in the engine compartment, leaking fuel vapors would get sucked into the fresh air intake on your HVAC system.
I could have been anything from a loose gas cap to
purge valves, charcoal canister.
the one on the intake is generally called
a purge valve / solenoid.
If
the purge valve is stuck open it can let fuel vapors into the engine while the engine is off, essentially flooding the engine.
