So my 2001 Ford F250 is needing the Fuel Vapor Tube Assembly replaced. My issue is I cant find an OE part to replace it with. The original tube assembly is 1/2 O.D. My question will it matter if I replace the Fuel Tube Assembly with a 3/8 O.D tube. If it will matter then whats your advice on fixing it. Im going to try some pull a part places
My wife has a 2004 Pathfinder and she got a p0455 code (evap gross leak, large evap leak). Took to the dealer, they changed charcoal canister, vent valve, purge valve. Then p0455 code went away, then we got p1456 code (small evap leak). Dealer then changed gas cap, still got p1456 code. Took back to dealer after 1 month, they charged $185 diagnostic fee, said it was stuck vent valve. I researched, bought new fuel tank pressure sensor and vent valve. I installed both, still got p1456 code. On my work day off, I got under car, removed canister (I tested it, good). I noticed rubber hose coming from gas tank to canister was stretchy, so I bought new fuel hose. I cut back a little bit of the purge line rubber hose (it was stretchy). Also I bought new clamps (ones where you use screwdriver to tighten). Installed the new fuel hose (that connects to the canister), 3 new clamps for the 3 hoses that attach to the canister (vent, purge and fuel). Bingo!!! No more codes pop up (no more CEL check engine light). No more evap leaks. Hope this helps somebody.
Great info. Calm clear description. I'm 75 year old woman trying figure out problem with my car. Mechanics charge so much so want to informed before take my car in. Wish I could still do simple maintenance one my car.
Last week, I got a PO446 code on my 2011 GMC Terrain 3.0L, Took it to my repair shop. They used smoke to identify an evap leak coming from my gas cap, so I ended up paying them $62 for a new gas cap, $220 overall for the repair (labor, part, and Credit Card processing fee!. After one week, the code reappeared, so I'm going back to the shop to see if the leak is coming from the gas cap area or other places. Thanks for the video. Well done.
Awesome video, I was in the Automotive field for 25 years, mostly sales, but your videos always are easy to understand and always right on the money for the diagnostics he talks about.
Just a note, You guys at 1A auto are definitely, #1A. I disassembled my 350 to remove my heads and assembled it just but watching your video. Just recently I watched the video for Evan code and again. Simple and thorough. Thanks guys Dino Edmonton, Ab. Canada
As an old, retired electrical engineer I am very impressed with your teaching skills. Repairing my cars is one of my hobbies, but sometimes I am getting stuck into hidden specific manufacturing problems, like a fuse found under the wax paper insolation on a small AC transformer. Anyhow, I would greatly appreciate if you could help me troubleshoot my 2003 BMW 745Li, which started with not accepting more than 1/2 tank fuel (except when dispensing very, very little at the time), and lately getting the so popular check engine light on with the P0444 code on it. I disconnected and tested the purge valve and seems to be perfectly fine, opening and closing promptly when applying 12v to it. It may be that the purge valve intake hose having a small leak at the connection to the other hose going to the charcoal canister is triggering the P0444 code, but I do not believe this has anything to do with the tank not accepting more than half fuel. BTW, there is no pressure, nor vacuum at the filling cap after driving the car. Could you please feed back with your expertise/experience on this? Thanks a million, Chris
I’m by no means a mechanic but I have a 2000 Ford ranger with P0455, a gross leak in the evap system. While doing some digging around I noticed my fuel filler tube was completely corroded and the rubber was very old. I’m planning on replacing this now and seeing if it can help keep fuel pressure due to the control valve and fix my rough start. While online I’ve seen people have the tube on their car be corroded as well or begin to leak gas whenever filling it up enough. It’s possible this is why you have to add the gas in very small spurts and why it doesn’t go past half
P0444 is “Evaporative Emission System Purge Control Valve Circuit Open.” You tested the valve itself so the circuit or the wire going to the valve has failed. Your charcoal canister is filled with gas because it's not being purged, which is why you are having trouble filling your gas tank. Of course I suspect you already know this.
This video explains a lot. I had 2 different shops that did smoke test, and neither could find it. The last shop suggested going to the dealer. I have a 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee, and experience with what may be causing this small leak on this type of vehicle. Code is a po456. Some type of pump was replaced, which in this video I didn’t see or hear about a pump. It was done before the smoke test. I think the pump and labor was under 100, and they told me it may or may not be the problem. 2 smoke test later , I still have a problem.
One more tip on the gas cap, make sure it is clean and free of debris. If it's a bit dirty, just get some alcohol wipes and clean both the inside of the cap and the rim of the filler neck. That is one of the most common problems I've seen with the P0440 code
this was the most soothing and informative video.... came here to learn about the EVAP system, subscribed for the guy’s voice and great presentation. so chill! thank you!
Diesel very good tips for checking the evap system on a car, however… I ran into the trouble of replacing the filler neck on my 04 trailblazer… using a Dorman part… come to find out these Filler necks do not seal to the GM gas cap.. took me a whole year to figure out what was wrong…. I could not find anyone who could check my gas cap for me…… I purchased another neck thinking I had a defective one as well as two caps…. When I attempted to apply pressure orally to the filler neck and found the gas cap leaked as if it was an open vent is when I realized I needed the factory jam part filler neck… and that’s how I got my check engine light off and cleared for inspection

@@1AAuto How do you know how to test if your fix worked? Do you need a fancy scanner to get live data? Do you just delete code and wait to see if it comes back? Is there any live data I can check to see if the problem is resolved?
Great video and explanation! Question! Can a evap vacuum leak, have enough effect, on the rest of the vacuum system, to cause the transmission to code and shift a little hard? I found my vacuum leak to be at the base of the filler neck on our 2004 Colorado!

I may have a leaky tank hose or breather. My gas cap used to go "pshh" when i removed it. No more. Evap solenoid alows flow when energised. Blocks flow when disconnected. I just unplugged it and the breather line. I no longer smell gasoline either when i stop. Gas mileage went up 5 mpg... I believe it was sucking lots of air through the tank somehow.
Thank you for this video! I got 97 W140 Benz and recently I got P0455 error and CEL. I'll try to check both purge valves (this car has two of them) and the gas cap. Other stuff I can't even touch since my garage is pretty narrow. Unfortunately, the charcoal canister is located behind the rear wheel liner. Can't even register the car while this CEL is present...
My brother just called me about his evap system on his '14 Ram 1500 having problems. I asked him if he has a habit of constantly clicking past the automatic shutoff while at the gas pump. He said yes and I told him to tell that shop you do this so they know what to look for. Then I told him he only needs 1 or 2 clicks not 20 past the automatic shutoff.
Eventually it will if gas keeps getting into the charcoal canister. The charcoal will get saturated and will basically turn to mud, meaning vapor can't get through.
I'm not a professional mechanic. As I've been learning through RUclips how to fix my vehicle I've learned that topping off your gas tank is bad. Right now my 2006 avalanche isn't allowing me to put in gas properly. I spend like 20-30 minutes at the pump to fill up. That's because one of my fuel lines is clogged up with charcoal pellets. When I replaced my canister I cut the old one open and it filled with charcoal pellets. So, that's what happens when you too off the tank. People want that little extra more fuel, but it'll cost you more money in the long run when you have to do repairs.
One thing I did to help find leak after spraying everything with soap and water is I duct taped gas cap opening after removing the cap. Poked a little hole used compressed air in filler neck
The purge valve and related system is easy to understand, when it opens the fumes are vacuumed into the intake stream. Tell me more about the vent: does it just vent to outside air or is it terminated in the system somewhere? Your diagram doesn't show exactly what it does.
+wei Huang Thank you! We love empowering our customers and showing how to perform DIY auto repairs with our high-quality auto parts. 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
Great explanation. My 2015 Mini F56 B38 engine has code 190302: "fuel tank ventilation air system micro leak; leakage greater than 0.5mm". Symptoms: rough idle, and noticeable shaking while driving and longer start up after refueling (~5 seconds). Ordered purge valve hoping it will fix the problem. Let me know if anyone thinks it's something else, but I'm starting with purge valve since it's easier to access. Next on my list are the leak detection module and vent valve.
Forgot to mention about the “evap pressure sensor”. Bad evap pressure sensor could also cause an evap code if it’s malfunctioning. But good explanation.
ive replaced the purge valve years ago and now the gas cap today and at some point the vent valve today. Hopefully this does the trick or else its the connector for the damn purge valve thats causing it to stay open.
@4:00, why do so many people get it wrong all the time! Every car is different! Jeeps and other Chrysler vehicles DO NOT COMMAND THE VENT TO OPEN! They have a switch that can detect if there is a vacuum on the system, only! If there is enough vacuum it will open and allow air INTO the system through the carbon filter, just based on the amount of vacuum, to draw the fumes into the intake Thru the carbon filter according to the purge solenoid duty cycle. Is there ANYONE out there that can stop oversimplifying how these things work! How many people have you led astray with bad and incomplete how-to videos?
Persistent P0455 code. Replaced gas cap twice. Looks like I’m going to have to try the “replace until it’s fixed route” to find the issue. No access to an evap smoke machine. What, after the gas cap, is the next thing I should try? I do have a faint gas smell. 2007 Tahoe.
For a couple weeks, I smell gas in my garage. There are no leaks under the truck. Would a problem in the system you describe cause this gas smell? How about a bad/cracked canister? What are the first things you'd check?
I don't think so. The surface area of the fuel is always the same no matter the level. The surface area of the fuel which is in contact with air emits vapors.
If I found lil black charcoal pebbles in Purge Valve Solenoid, is that from the purge valve canister or from the charcoal Vapor Canister? Thanks nd great video!
Enjoyed your video. Great explanation of P0455 code. The check engine light on my 2014 Prius came on with the P0455 code. Upon checking I discovered my air filter was missing. I believe it was removed and not replaced when my oil was changed about a month ago at a local oil change service. Would this cause the P0455 code?
You made it clear that the purge valve and vent control are in 2 different locations but are they the same part? I can only find vent control replacement on your website for 2012 altima 3.5
So, if a vehicle sits for an extended period of time, our fuel systems work just like in the old days with vapors sent to the atmosphere through the EVAP vent? All things equal, do most vehicle fuel tanks not generate enough gas vapors over an evening/night to put vapors directly into the atmosphere?
could a vent valve hose clog cause pressure to rise making it difficult to fill the tank creating a check engine light and hesitation near idle? Your awesome!

Great explanation, does having the gas tank full mean the engine light is less likely to come on or more likely to come on?

If I found lil black charcoal pebbles in Purge Valve Solenoid, is that from the purge valve canister or from the charcoal Vapor Canister? Thanks nd great video!
Would pumping gas with the vehicle running cause the evap system to turn the check engine on?
Engine running with gas cap open, it is possible.
If you pump gas while the car is running you're an idiot.
Enjoyed your video. Great explanation of P0455 code. The check engine light on my 2014 Prius came on with the P0455 code. Upon checking I discovered my air filter was missing. I believe it was removed and not replaced when my oil was changed about a month ago at a local oil change service. Would this cause the P0455 code?
Just install new filter and see if code disapears. If not than its something else. 👍
You made it clear that the purge valve and vent control are in 2 different locations but are they the same part? I can only find vent control replacement on your website for 2012 altima 3.5

Outstanding Brother ... great presentation
So a gasket missing on the fuel pump can cause evaporation loss? Leading to no start?
So the vent vents to the atmosphere when the vehicle is off? To smoke test, one must close the purge valve using vacuum- engine off. ??
Good stuff, thanks for making this simple
