Hey I appreciate it, I can take a look and see where that might be, the listing has a pic of where it's supposed to be 👍

Well this is a revelation, apparently I don't have an EGR valve? At least according to this picture, where it's setup on my car is to the purge valve, and on this other car it's to the EGR thing I'm supposedly supposed to replace, afaik it's been like that for 2-3 years I've had the intake on and I've only started having issues recently..that is purge valve for evap.....deals with tank vapors. egr is exhaust gas and would be a different unit between exhaust manifold and throttle body. On my mazda, carbon would start making that egr valve not close and would cause car to die at idle. cleaning the carbon out of egr with brake cleaner was the fix. not sure this would be the case for the xB tho...
I'll try that, since I'm kinda at a standstill, I'll lyk any updatesP0442 = evap small leak
P0420 = catalyst system inefficiency
P0441 = incorrect purge flow
P0446 = Evap vent solenoid
All of these seem related to the purge valve in your pic, nevermind the egr one in the 2nd pic. IMO, if you replace that purge valve all codes except maybe the catalyst P0420 should go away but maybe that one is also related to purge valve as a colateral code from the others. Replace the purge valve and clear codes and hopefully none come back.
You can test the purge valve by sucking on the hose nipple and see if it holds pressure on your tongue. If air passes thru it or doesn't hold suction then valve is bad but the electric part could still be bad. Check the connection to it and make sure both wires are intact on the harness side at the plug. It is fairly common for one to get pulled loose from plug. You can also buy the plug connector separately and splice it into harness if that is the issue. If inconclusive just get new valve. They aren't crazy priced.
sorry for the late reply but the purge valve does hold pressure on my tongue, I'm still having the same issue, the electrical connection looks fine nothing is hanging or broken, I also believe it's running rich bc I'm having a lot of soot and low mpg, should I try a new valve?P0442 = evap small leak P0420 = catalyst system inefficiency P0441 = incorrect purge flow P0446 = Evap vent solenoid All of these seem related to the purge valve in your pic, nevermind the egr one in the 2nd pic.
