Engine light on with EVAP code in your car or truck? Rapidly find the problem in your EVAP system.

Do you have a check engine light on with a EVAP code? This video will help you easily find the source of the problem! In this video, Andy shows you where many EVAP related check engine codes come from. The EVAP system is responsible for safely handing gasoline vapors that build inside your car or truck's gas tank. The system uses a series of valves, filters, and vacuum pressure from the engine to safely remove gasoline vapors to prevent pollution.

God how I wish this ridiculous unnecessary equipment didn't exist on cars.

Want to preserve the evap system? Don't overfill your gas tank, when it clicks it's full. Do not round up to the next dollar.

Did I miss the part where you show us how to "rapidly find the problem "?

[rashadm.sadigov]

Great quick video. I would be also so grateful if you showed how to test each of those components, such as canister, selinoid etc., to detect the fault

[whitewalker]

Could you please do a physical test and a volt test and an ohms test on all these components?

ITs REALLY tough to diagnose an evap system without a bidirectional scan tool and a smoke machine. I suppose you can throw parts at it and cross your fingers.

I get to drop the gas tank on my car this week. Small evap leak code set. Vent valve could be audibly heard clicking when turning it off on with the scan tool. I did a purge and seal test, with the system sealed it degraded very quickly when watching the pressure sensor in the tank. Smoked the system and smoke was rolling off the top of the gas tank. Something is broken up there, hence the gas tank removal.

I changed the canister, solenoid valve and purge valve. Charcoal got all the way to the purge valve

Simple fix blew air into the little hole at filler neck. Cleared the clogged line.
Checked all hose connections to be sure it tight and not cracked. Code is gone.

Thank you for all your useful and clear information's that provide us through your videos, that makes work on cars very easy at home, but would you please focus more in the most needed generation for that repair videos I mean (second generation 07-14 ) of (GM SUVs & Pickups GMC Chevrolet Cadillac Tahoe Suburban avalanche Yukon Escalade), electric issues mechanic issues accessories installing(more buttons and panels for accessories ), programming (like change tire size and how if needed), big tires off road and how to make it fit in your professional guide, advice tips about parts and lubricants when or how long after need to replace, recalls.

Thank you again very much .

I had that problem in my Civic and all mechanics that I went didn't want to do that job. There was finally one mechanic that agreed to do it but told me he dont have a tool to put vapor inside the evap so he warned me that since he dont have that tool, he just gonna guess based in stats and how the part looks. Well, he replaced the vent valve under the car and bingo! Problem solve. (I already replaced the gas cap and it was not that, I told that to the mechanic).

Most annoying code ever. It comes and goes. I ignore.

[RamonLFrancisco]

Best video I've seen you make! Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

[testdepth]

I live in a state that does not require emissions. Please tell me how to delete the EVAP system on a 2012 Yukon Denali

One of the most. Mist. Problem in a. Evap problem with check engine on is a clogged sponge filter in a. Evap charco box under your car. As long with a. Valve that opens and closes In front of the. Sponge filter Just in the last few weeks have fixed 6 vehicles. With this problem Most of theas cars where. Chev. Small. Cars

Tip to avoid EVAP Issues - STOP overfilling your gas tank! Once the "click" happens while filling... STOP.

How often should the charcoal canister be changed? Can EVAP leaks be the cause of smell of gasoline/fuel weird smells in the cabin, with the check engine light on?

Get a smoke machine or don’t even think you who ever get good at EVAP troubleshooting. Absolutely required piece of equipment

[LittleMissSarahQ]

Can you help me I have a Chevy Silverado 2019 and I’m getting code P0498 which is evap low circuit. i’ve already replaced the evap and checked the fuse and check out my wiring. My next step is the fuel control module. Does that sound correct? Thanks.
