Evap Canister Purge Valve - Where is it? (Code P0497 - Evap system low purge flow)
I have a 2004 Honda Civic with a CEL light on. The scanner pulls the code P0497 - Evap System Low Purge Flow.
Many people online have recommended replacing the Canister Shutoff Valve: http://www.autozone.com/engine-manag...lve/910150_0_0
which I have located attached to the Evap Canister in front of the gas tank.
Many people have ALSO recomened replacing the Canister Purge Valve:

I cannot find this valve for the life of me. I'm under the impression it's in the engine compartment, but WHERE? Pics would be helpful. Thanks!!!
