Graham:
One more thing in case your interested in the purpose/function of the Purge Solenoid:
The canister purge valve is a solenoid valve which controls air flow and fuel vapors from the evaporative emission carbon canister into the engine. Air is drawn through the canister to purge the trapped fuel vapors when the purge valve is actuated by the engine control computer. The purge valve can be used as an on/off valve or pulse width modulated (PWM) valve.
Also, if you're in the USA, the Federal EPA standards mandate certain warranties that govern emission control systems (ie typically longer than the standard vehicle warranty). Check your paperwork to see if it's not covered under the manufactures warranty.
