I keep getting a CEL and a “very small leak” evap code (I don’t remember the exact number code). I have replaced everything that is normally the culprit of this code, and even had the thing smoke tested, but cant keep the code from going away.
I had a thought recently and wanted to bounce it off you guys. I have a flatbed with the filler relocated farther forward and upward from the factory location. I am using the factory filler neck and cap, btu had to extend the hose conneting the tank to the neck by about 24”. Its not a super soft hose, but I thought about it the other day, how the hose going from my filler neck to the tank might be compressing and causing a false “leak” situation during a leak test? Not sure how much pressure the system creates, but I’m racking my brain trying to figure out why the code keeps coming back.
Thoughts?
