You should be on the charcoal canister.
It must be on the charcoal canister. the charcoal canister should be located in the back of the car near the fuel tank.
like the charcoal canister could be located in the passeanger wheel well.
If that is the same as the charcoal canister it is in the engine compartment behind the drivers side headlight
Clogged purge or charcoal canister.
It means you have an Evap purge control leak in the EVAP system. Basically when you have gasoline in a car there are a lot of excess fumes, these fumes are routed through the EVAP system of the car, through a charcoal canister, and returned back to your gas tank as liquid fuel. A leaking charcoal canister, Evap Purge solenoid, PCV lines or PCV elbows can cause this. Also a leaking gas cap can cause this. I would recommend replacing the gas cap first. if that does not do it, check all the connections to the EVAP canister *located in the engine by the firewall*. If there are any leaks, change the elbows or lines. IF the problem still exists you most likely need a new charcoal canister or Canister purge valve solenoid.
on modern cars the fuel system is unvented. The evap purge and vent solenoid goes to a charcoal canister. When the vehicle is off the fuel tank is connected to the charcoal canister through the P/V solenoid and it absorbs the vented gas fumes from the tank. When the vehicle is on and at speed the solenoid switches and the charcoal canister is connected to engine vacuum and the vacuum of the engine purges the gas fumes in the charcoal through the engine burning them
also referred to as the Vapor Canister Purge Valve and is in\on the charcoal evaporator canister. its under the truck above the spare tire location, locate the charcoal canister on the front of the gas tank and trace the vent line to the vent valve.
In 1998 Corolla, it's underneath car in front of muffler (looking towards front of car), a black rectangle with hoses coming out of one end. Replacing it will erase OBDII code PO441. Replacing the Vapor Canister Purge Valve, located on top of engine behind air filter box "L" shaped bracket. Held on by one 10mm bolt. Has 2 vacuum hoses and an electrical connection, will erase PO446. You can replace Purge valve yourself. Try Ebay first for the part, in search box type: "vapor canister purge".
The purge valve on the Malibu is located on top of the charcoal canister that is mounted on the side of, or in close relation to the fuel tank. Usually on the same side as the filler neck. This purge valve is not to be confused with the purge valve solenoid which is located on the intake manifold. If for some reason you can not find the purge valve/canister just locate the solenoid on the intake manifold (which will have an electrical plug and one vaccum line attached to it.) and trace the vaccum line under the car to the canister. As stated above...it is there that you will find the canister purge valve.
