Yes, poor fuel quality in Pakistan can contribute to purge control valve failures. Low-grade fuel often contains impurities that can clog the charcoal canister and purge valve over time, leading to:

Valve sticking o r blockage.

Accelerated wear on seals and diaphragms inside the valve.

Erratic valve operation causing engine performance issues.

To prevent this, regular maintenance such as using high-quality fuel, periodic cleaning of the fuel system components, and timely replacement of the purge valve o r related parts is recommended. Using fuel additives to clean injectors and valves can also help in prolonging the purge valve’s life.
