CODE: Evaporative Emission Control System Leak Detected

[XpedientJ]

Pulling the code:

' Evaporative Emission Control System Leak Detected (Small Leak) '


Can anyone advise where the most typical/likely spots for such a leak to occur?

What is the best way to track it down? Perhaps, disconnect somewhere and air-pressurize...?


Thanks!

gas cap is first place to look...
after that check the evap line connections throughout the system...some leaks happen at the canister connections...
on my 2001 the leak was at the bottom of the firewall in the rubber evap line where it switches from plastic to rubber and then back to plastic.
