Guide overview

Before you begin

If your Ford fusion is starting hard, stalling out, or has a very rough idle and has these check engine codes P1450,P0456,P144C, and P219A, Specifically P1450 and P0456. The Vapor Canister Purge Valve more than likely needs to be replaced. A quick way to verify the part has failed is to remove the hose connected to the solenoid(the one with the green clip) while the car is idling and placing your finger over the tube the hose was connected to, if there is any kind of suction the part has failed and needs to be replaced. One of the after market part numbers for this part is 911-757. It's a very easy fix. Check this before replacing the fuel filler neck, and save yourself some money.

The circled part is the hose to disconnect to test in the part is good or bad. If there is suction coming from the solenoid while the car idles it's bad. It's a very simple fix. Just make sure to release the clips and to squeeze the tabs on the correct hoses so that they come off, and make sure to fasten them when you install them
