TSB 11-1-5 Canister Purge Valve

[DUKE]

Canister purge valve replaced under warranty

Hello,

i recently was nearly stranded when the idle became rough while driving and minutes later the check eng light came on and the truck when into a -fail safe mode- while onthe highway. Took about 3 hour to troubleshoot and replace the cpv. All is well. I am going to get a spare to have since this seems like a known issue with the tsb 12-03 i think

Fyi
only early warning was the throttle fluctuated when i was parking and in reverse with my foot on the brake. Tach showed a swing upto 1800 rpms. I checked my floor mat, but not the case.

So I take it this is for 6.2L? Hmm seems to me these "better" 6.2L engines are having a few problems haha my 5.4L is running like a champ. Just changed the spark plugs too at 48,874.4 miles and run royal purple high performance synthetic oil!

Yes, I know it is covered under warranty. The problem is it normally does not throw codes, and $tealerships seems to have a hard time reproducing it.. To me $55 and 10 minutes is worth my time verses letting the dealership throw parts at it..

I've been hearing a ticking sound for a while now but no trouble codes. Thanks GJ for the instructions, I like working on my own truck over letting a dealer do it.

So that is what the ticking sound is. I thought it might be the fuel injectors or something.

Jim I got mine replaced with no issue at all. Just tell them you have a ticking noise coming from under the hood some place. Let them tell you its the CPV and your good to go.

My 2012 has this issue

I have noticed this too. Does this effect performance?

What will eventually happen it will fail and the truck will have a cold start issue (low rpm at idle, miss firing, and dying) and have a crap ton of unmetered air entering the intake causing a whole list of trouble codes...

Sounds crappy. I think I will have it looked at.
