Re: Evap purge valve and fuel odor
I bought a PCV kit and replaced all the vacuum elbows as well and CEL went away. And I've been driving around like that for a week and still no CEL. Everything is good.. Thanks. Taking intake manifold was kinda beyoochi though.

Re: Evap purge valve and fuel odor
I replaced cracked vapor hose and I dont have fuel odor anymore. Then I drove around for a while but CEL is still on. One thing I've noticed is smoke is coming out of the oil dip stick and looks like there is some engine oil on the intake manifold and on top of the valve cover. I guess the oil seper...

Re: Evap purge valve and fuel odor
Would you please?
BTW, anyone know how hard it is to replace that cracked hose.
Any kind of instructions would be really nice.

Re: Evap purge valve and fuel odor
I found the issue. Like jblackburn said, I found the cracked hose on the fuel tank. Sorry the pictures are not so clear. My dell phone doesn't take very good pictures.

Re: Evap purge valve and fuel odor
Hmmmmm All the way back to the fuel tank eh. That does not sound very fun. Anyways, I've checked all the hoses in the engin bay and I took the canister off to see the connections there and they are fine also.

Body and paint were in good shape and the engine and the transmission felt good when I test drove. I got P0442 code a week ago (Autozo...
