P0661 SSV Solenoid, what other solenoids?
I am getting P0661 engine code which I read was the SSV. I kind of did things backwards and already replaced the actual valve, but still have the code, so it's gotta be the solenoid.
What are the other two solenoids that are back there with the SSV solenoid? I figured I might as well replace them if they are cheap while I have everything apart. Thanks |

Thanks - the solenoid, - solenoid connector, - vacuum hose, - SSV valve, or - SSV valve kick switch Check all of those. Lol, regarding replacing the other valves... I'd suggest if it ain't broke...reject the urge to fix it. |
Thanks I will check that. The SSV Solenoid is the middle solenoid of the three under the intake manifold right?

Swapped out the solenoid and my check engine light went away. I stupidly forgot to re-attach this hose and it got torn off by the belt. What does this hose from the oil cap to the intake do?

That's your PCV to evacuate blowby and such from the oil pan. Not critical in the short term but the fact that both ends are now open to atmosphere is going to make for a poor idle and performance.
Also that hot air intake is going to make for poor performance, suggest going back to stock or a normal CAI. Also not having your engine undertray is going to make for poor cooling at speed /risk overheating. Why is there a household water valve over the throttle body? |
Thanks for the info, I'm not sure what that water valve is for lol. I was going to make a post on here when I got around to it and ask. The previous owner did it I guess. The valve is set to the closed position. What does that hose do that it's connected on?

As for the three vacuum solenoids, you have two ssv style valves, and one goes to the air pump.
