I recently replaced the purge solenoid with a factory unit and I can hear it operating rather loudly if I have my windows down. I made a video of it with the hood up and engine cover off. Does this seem excessive? I know it's suppose to click but it seems loud. I can confirm it's this and not exhaust bolts because if I touch it I feel the pulses with each clicking noise.

Is the connector on correctly? I replaced my fuel tank and the purge valve wasnt fully seated and it sounded exactly like that. A little bit of fussing at it to seat proper and it went silent.

Are you talking about the part coming from the fuel tank or going to the throttle body?
