Wells 2N1118 Vapor Canister Purge Solenoid

The Wells 2N1118 Vapor Canister Purge Solenoid is a direct-fit OE-replacement emissions control component designed to restore proper EVAP system function. The purge solenoid is a critical part of the evaporative emissions system — it routes fuel vapors stored in the charcoal vapor canister back into the intake stream, where they are burned in the combustion chamber rather than vented to the atmosphere.

The Engine Control Module (ECM) opens and closes the solenoid valve based on operating conditions, precisely metering vapor flow for optimal combustion efficiency and emissions compliance. A failed purge solenoid can trigger a Check Engine Light (CEL), cause rough idle, reduce fuel economy, and result in a failed emissions inspection.

Key Features:

• Engineered and tested to match OE parts in fit, form, and function
• Compatible with both domestic and imported vehicle applications
• Includes OE-style brackets, hardware, and electrical connectors where applicable
• Meets or exceeds original equipment specifications for reliable, long-term performance
• Direct replacement for straightforward installation — no modifications required
• Helps resolve EVAP system fault codes and restore emissions compliance

The Wells 2N1118 is manufactured by Wells Vehicle Electronics (WVE), a leading supplier of engine management and vehicle electronics components for the North American automotive aftermarket. This solenoid is typically located under the hood near the intake manifold, though exact placement varies by vehicle application.
