Suggestion · Original poster

it�s a 15 minute job to replace the valve since the hose connected on the left side needs to be sliced down the middle to remove from the valve (new valve doesn�t come with a hose).

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

2 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Replaced the Carbon Tank Control Valve today on my 99 C2 and solved low idle/stall issue. History - Developed a situation this summer where the engine would either stall or nearly stall at idle. Interestingly, the idle would be fine with the a/c on. 800rpm no problem. Shut off the a/c and the idle would drop a lot and sometimes stall. Since it was summer the A/C was always on. I read a while back this little valve can cause idle issues. I also read if it�s starting to fail you can hear it click repetitively. Mine was clicking so I ordered the valve (no idle issues at the time). Finally got around to installing today. it�s a 15 minute job to replace the valve since the hose connected on the left side needs to be sliced down the middle to remove from the valve (new valve doesn�t come with a hose). I just reused the hose and put a clamp on it. Works great. After the valve was replaced the car idles just perfect at 750 with a/c off.
