1999 Mounty 5.0L "Purge valve location"?

[RickMar]

Hello;
I have a 1999 Mercury Mounty Mountaineer.
It failed emissions code P0442
Could you tell me where the "Purge valve" is located?
5.0L (302 cu. in.) AWD.

I'm trying to get this fixed before the artic air arrives or snow starts flying around.

Any information will be very much appreciated.
Thank you;
Rick

There is one under the battery, and one in the black box under the rear of the truck above the spare tire.

Check the vacuum lines under the battery ( behind the headlight) to the solenoid valve you will find there first. Removing the inner fender liner will help you see it better.
