Evaporative emissions

Re: Evaporative emissions
one or more components in the evaporative emission failed, it could be a vacuum (hose) leak, charcoal canister failure, fuel tank vent valve clogged or fuel vent valve not working, ventilation vent valve clogged, vacuum switch valve not working. Since it's a generalized error, you need to check every components for failure or leak. Checking for fuel vent valve, ventilation vent valve for clogs and vacuum switch valve are easy, the rest needs to go under and do some testing.

The most common cause of several of those codes is, "gas cap not tight".
Sometimes, the rubber seal on the gas cap can get torn or worn, and start leaking. Usually, the operator failed to fully re-install the gas cap after adding fuel.
