EVAP Purge Solenoid testing and replacement video
« on: July 26, 2011, 06:40:42 PM »
Hello Everyone,

We have been getting a lot of calls about this, so we thought we should make a quick little video on how to check and replace the EVAP purge solenoid on the LNF cars. If you have any questions, please let us know.

Here is the link to the video on youtube:

Thanks,
Dave

Based on this video the other day I could test by myself if EVAP was broken.

THANK YOU for saving me a trip to the mechanic and many questions to other Kappa owners.
