This morning I got a check engine light. So when I put the scan tool on I got P0496. I think It's high e-vac or something. For starters does it have anything to do with me putting gas in it last night? If not where should I look on the engine???
Thanks,
Trevor

Clear the code and see if it comes back

I've cleared the code a few days back and it came back this morning. Where should I start looking (on the engine) I looked it up (p0496) on line and it looks like it could be a part on the engine. I don't know where to start.
Thanks,
Trevor

That code often indicates an improperly seated or faulty fuel cap. As you stated that this first appeared after refueling, that is where I would look first.

Then it's the purge control sol it's mounted on top of the intake manifold it's a common replaced part. But if your under 80k it's covered so just hit the dealer it's part of the emissions

Thanks for the info. I'm around 100,300 miles so nothing is (probably) covered :sadbanana:

I'm going to take a better look around the engine bay when I install the OEM foglights. Plus sorry about the lack of good pics (dame you autofocus).
Could this be the valve I'm looking for?

Hey Trevor! I saw your post on the other thread where the guy provided the link for the actual part. Can you please tell me how you disconnected the housing of the tube that is near the base of the intake manifold??? I can't get is loose to save my life...
