98167, thermostat / vaccum hose Posted by aivanne182, Apr-25-06 06:06 AM
Hey guys,
I tried my best searching to answer my questions but Ican't find really what i need to know....
My car throws couple of codes: 17 which says " engine cold too long"
and 31 which is evaporative purge solenoid line, vaccuum hose, emission canister clogged
Car runs pefectle fine, at least for what i can see...I was just bothered by the CEL light on.
Now my question is, are these 2 codes related ? would it help if id purge my coolant ? change my thermostat ?
I don't know too much about all that stuff, any help is appreciated.
Thx

both are unrelated
#1 replace your coolant temp sensor #2 replace your evap canister (could also be bad vacuum lines going to/from the evap canister or a bad evap solenoid.

Do a search on CODE 31 or look at some of the other threads on this page. That seems to be the popular code everyone's car is throwing right now.
