I've been trying to track down a stumble/lack of power on my truck for awhile now, and finally went and bought a code reader. I got 3 codes, one of them being 565, Canister purge solenoid circuit failure. Weird thing is, I don't have a purge solenoid. The connector is present on the engine harness, but the line that comes off the charcoal canister that would go to the solenoid just makes a 90 degree bend off the top of the canister, then stops.
I got to thinking on this, and I was told that the engine had been replaced prior to me buying the truck. If I was to buy a new solenoid, where does it purge to? I know some of them are under the upper intake, and some are beside the engine in the line that goes to the canister, but does it just plug into any open vacuum port?
