A small solenoid that allows gas vapors to be purged from the charcoal canister in to the engine. If you want simpler, It's busted, get it fixed.Whats a fuel evaporation control valve?
All cars have a canister on a hose attached to the gas tank to capture the fumes as the gas sloshes around. This canister is purged every once in a while and that is what the valve controls. It's an emissions issue. It might cause a pressure test fail if you have to get it smog tested depending if the valve is stuck open of closed. Drive on
