mklmg Posted January 10, 2023 Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 (edited) Howdy ! Long time original owner 2012 Edge Limited 3.5 AWD...anyways, of course I broke the clip taking the hose off. After a half hour of web surfing I don't know if the Dorman 800-040 or 041 or 023 will work on it. After replacing the valve & the hose, it did run nicely for a couple minutes, then the valve started ticking. Duralast PV637 Questions: 1) which Dorman clip will fit my Edge 2) does running it w/o the clip harm the valve in any way. I'd hate to have to walk to the Auto Zone. Thanks in advance !

1004ron Posted January 10, 2023 Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 Post a photo of the broken clip. If its the retaining clips, then it will have no impact on the valve or engine unless the connection falls off - the O-ring inside the fitting keeps it sealed.

mklmg Posted January 10, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 (edited) Thanks for the quick reply. Well, unfortunately the clip is in several pieces. I guess it broke & then dropped down into the engine compartment as the only piece I found was about an inch or so long. I didn't even know they were U shaped.

CARR142 Posted January 10, 2023 Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 For future reference: Remove the purge value before moving the clip. There is enough slack in the hose to do so. Makes it a lot easier. Best Wishes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Electric Posted March 29, 2023 Report Share Posted March 29, 2023 The Dorman 800-040 clip fits perfectly. Be sure to face the beveled side toward the valve. Amazon has these as well listed as Fuel Line Retainer Clip Holder | Mechanic PACK of 4 FC-800-040. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
