Howdy all
on my 97 hatchback...I have a code 443 that appears every blue moon...sezs (evap emission system purge control valve circuit) I have the factory manual..Haynes and the schematics are in the engine hood ...got new vacuum hoses..where is the vapor canister purge valve/solenoid located??... I bought one at rock auto (purge valve/solenid) :news I was looking at diagram and I thought it might be up in the engine..would it be located back by the gas tank? I am limited on the amount of work I can do..and would rather fix it myself ,,if at all possible,,hoping it aint the evap cannister vent valve--which would require dropping the gas tank..ick :shit

only thing I saw on search

The link you provided shows where it is located on the engine. Not hard to swap out if you have a new one. Maybe a couple of bolts and vacuum lines to take off and put back on.

Before your new one gets there, you should evaluate all electrical lines and all vacuum hoses that are related to that device. the one on my 4/3 (4 cyl. 3 spd auto) will ocassionally click like a lifter and sounds bad, but just doin it's job
