    Protege5 won't idle after refueling (EVAP/O2 sensor issue?)

    That Evaporative Gas Check Valve could be an issue and I don't think that there is a code for it? I remember a guy that had the vent holes on the valve plugged up with mud and his car ran like crap. IIRC, the valve directs gas vapor directly to the Catch Tank in the engine bay when the engine...

    Protege5 won't idle after refueling (EVAP/O2 sensor issue?)

    When you overfill the gas tank, raw gas gets sucked into tube "A" in the diagram, then it gets into your Evap system. Then it gets sucked through the Evaporative Gas Check Valve (two-way) as a liquid. Then it fills up your air filter, then goes through the CDCV it's on it's way to the...

    Protege5 won't idle after refueling (EVAP/O2 sensor issue?)

    You may have overfilled your gas tank and sucked liquid gas up into catch tank in the engine bay. The purge solenoid valve opens up and sucks in raw gas instead of gas vapor. One guy did that and he said his catch tank was gurgling like a bong. 😂 He removed his catch tank, drained it...

    You don't need a hydraulic press. Just a big socket set, a sledge hammer, a freezer, and an oven,.. Notice the dents in my socket,.. I missed a few times with my sledge hammer. 😂

    Is it possible to check the Protege5 Timing belt?

    It's a non-interference engine. Just run it until the belt snaps. Get AAA,.. or CAA in my case. You can replace the Timing-Belt several times with no damage.
