Can the car still be driven if the carbon canister solenoid valve is broken?

If the car's carbon canister is broken, it may cause the engine to idle poorly, stall, or become difficult to start. Here is some information about the car's carbon canister: 1. Installation and function: It is installed between the fuel tank and the engine, using the adsorption capacity of the activated carbon inside to adsorb and store fuel vapor from the fuel tank in the carbon canister. 2. Working principle: When the engine starts, the solenoid valve between the activated carbon canister and the intake manifold opens according to the ECU's command. At this time, the fuel vapor in the activated carbon canister is drawn into the cylinder along with the air under the vacuum negative pressure of the intake pipe to participate in combustion. This not only reduces unnecessary emissions but also lowers the engine's fuel consumption.
