The day after Christmas and all is quiet here. Our gifts have all been opened and it is just my wife and I at home.
I did do some shopping today for the wagon. Found a used Purge Solenoid at the local wrecking yard. I think it is not to old since the part number was the newer one and it was not even bolted back in the original spot under the intake manifold.
After checking it out the piston inside seems to be stuck, but the resistance of the solenoid is close to the correct value and I paid my $5.00. Tomorrow I should have time to check it out and install it.
