    Default Broken purge solenoid

    Hi-

    I decided to do the canisterectomy today and I ended up breaking the lower plastic connector on my purge solenoid right at the base. It broke in one piece, so would epoxying it work temporarily until I can get a new one?

    The part says Bosch 0 280 142 470...I am having trouble finding it online. Is there a different part number I could find at a local parts store or car dealership? The nearest Can-Am dealer is 100 miles away.

    Any thoughts or suggestions would be great

    Thanks
    Jeff

    Thanks Chupaca
    Do you think epoxying the broken one will work in the meantime?

    Default Sure....

    Should be fine, just let it set well. I usually use a soldering gun to weld the break and then apply the epoxy so it has rough edges to latch onto...

    Why do you want to retain the purge valve anyway? If you are removing the canister. The purge valve would serve no function.
