"Check engine soon" light came on the dash. Two different places, 1) D&R Automotive my regular maintenance shop and 2) Advanced Automotive, have scanned my computer and received the P0455 code = EVAP SYSTEM Leak (Large). Typically this code is the result of a "bad or after market gas cap."
When my driver side rear fender was modified (to accomodate 35s) I had my EVAP cannister removed and reangled at 15 degrees and then it was reinstalled. The mechanic assured me that the EVAP canister could be angled at 15 degree (off of stock angle) without any impact. So I'll likely start by having that shop trouble shoot their work. If that doesn't yield results then I'll have another shop trace the gas system for an evap leak from the tank to the engine.
Any related ideas, opinions, concerns, suggestions, comments, etc are appreciated. Quite honestly, on this sort of problem I have no experience in resolving.
Thanks
