Hello All,

Thank you for your assistance. I've been scouring the forum but haven't found what I'm looking for and hope someone can help. I need to replace the Canister Close Valve on a 2015 Hyundai Tucson. I've removed the rear driver wheel and fender well, and I can get my hand on the canister, but based on where it's located (on top of the tank) it appears to be impossible to remove without dropping the fuel tank? I also removed the rear seat, but that only gives me access to the fuel pump through the opening. I purchased the Chilton online manual but it was pretty much worthless in providing directions (showed the connectors and basically said remove and replace...lol) Anyone have experience with replacing this thing, or advice on how to remove it without dropping the tank? If dropping the tank is necessary, I'm looking for clear instructions for that as well (again, the Chilton manual falls extremely short). THank you in advance!!

 

Before getting involved in something you may not need to do, can we ask why are you after the valve and how was it determined to be the problem.
Grant you there are some good videos on the net and some questionable ones too.

If you feel the valve may be jammed with charcoal from the canister , the canister needs to be replaced also.
Constant overfilling (filling until it won't take anymore) the tank when purchasing fuel destroys the canister which is meant to only contain vapors, gets soaked with liquid and is destroyed and the charcoal granules now are distributed throughout the evaporative system which now all needs to be cleaned out.

 

Thank you for the reply. I figured I would pull the CCV first and see if it were clogged, since I don't ever fill past the "click" on the car, I am thinking it may alternatively be stuck closed? Hoping at least.... Getting to it seems to be a pretty difficult job though, and I think I am going to wait until I have access to a lift, as opposed to trying to drop the tank with a floor jack. Don't see any other reasonable way to get to it, which is not good. Symptoms are consistent with everything else I have read related to the overfilling, but I drive this car pretty much solely, so I am hoping that is not the case. Check engine light and constant stops when pumping fuel. The pumping fuel issue is intermittent though, it seems like one day it will work okay, and the next day not (more frequently not).
