electro valve?
I wonder if anyone knows what this thing (maybe electro valve?) Because it has really annoying noise .. sometimes I can hear even in the cab ..

Re: electro valve?
As far as I'm aware it regulates pressure in the fuel tank by allowing air from the intake system into the tank to compensate for the liquid pulled out by the fuel tank. It shouldn't make a noticeable noise except for a few seconds after you've shut the engine off so I suspect yours is broken. Should be easy to pick up one from a breakers yard - I haven't checked but I think they're all the same
<steve_earwig> I think this forum is more about keeping our cars going with minimal outlay than giving our cars more reason to go bang

Re: electro valve?
MJB is right ... I found out that it can be isolated (if the noise bothers you), or buy a new one.
or newer 406 (ph2) have the petrol filter in the fuel tank..so that can you just check them or clened themmjb wrote:petrol filters in 406s are under the car just in front of the fuel tank.
