Purge Control Solenoid

Post by FundamentalyConfused »

So I need to get a new purge control solenoid.

A brand new one runs around $77. I found a used one on ebay that look pretty decent and is only $37.

Would you guys gamble on the used part or just bite the bullet and buy a new one?

I've got a couple if you need one. make an offer. I know that solenoid on my 92 is good and I don't need it anymore.

Same, I have a brand new one that I ended up not needing. Shoot a price!
