This code just popped up and I am wondering what it could be. When I looked up the code here it what I got, "This indicates a fuel vapor leak or lack of purge flow in the EVAP control system. It means a large leak has been detected." I have been having an abnormally low idle lately. What things should I check?

first check for me would be a check to see if i smell gas after running the car. next, i would check the gas cap. a new gas cap would be a quick fix. if you smell gas anywhere, you have a leak in the tank somewhere. you can check the tank access panel by removing the rear seat and the tank cover panel.

Would this code cause a low idle?

 

[njaremka]

it could. the fuel system relies on a specific pressure in the tank to work correctly, and when its not proper, all sorts of things can happen.

I figured it out. One of the small tubes on the manifold fell off.

Im getting the same code and recently did some intake work. which tube was off on yours. i checked mine but dont really see any tubes disconnected. thanks
