Vacuum pump?

Post by Barillacorso »

Hi,
This is my introduction question- I have an '05 astro= there is a vacuum pump of sorts on the to of motor passenger side rear, It plugs into a linr with air bleeders. Can someone please tell me what it is? The nipple broke off and I unplugged it to stop the annoying chugging sound. Will this affect performance or cause a check engine light? Thanx in advance.

EVAP purge valve, it's a $20 part, I would simply replace it. http://amzn.to/2pDpau5
