Re: Vent valve

Its my 98 ssei and its the valve that connects to the canister,it has a 2 wire connection to it.It is part of the evap system.You have the purge solenoid,vent valve and the canister.Its the vent valve that not one parts store seems to have.

Vent valve

Does anyone know what the part # is for the Vent valve?not the purge but the vent valve.Every parts store that I have gone to only has the purge but no listing for the vent valve.

Re: OEM sparks plugs vs. NGK

What I will do tomorrow is go get 3 new ones and see what happens and report back.But is there really a difference between say the ngk 55s and the champion copper plus as far as voltage used to run it?if so maybe that might mean coils going bad?I dont know..

Re: OEM sparks plugs vs. NGK

Re: 93' Bonneville SSEI Smoking and running rough

93 octane cost more but your mpg will go up so in the long run it all comes out the same in the end plus your car will run better..

sparkplug heat range

Right now Im useing champion copper plus spark plugs that have a heat range of 14.I was thinking on getting the ngk 55s which have a heat range of 5.My question is what if any difference in the way the engine runs will I notice by switching.Is there a big difference in a heat range of 14 vs 5?
