Greetings . Got a pesky P0442/CEL . J hose change 2 years ago, but seems to look OK. Have check paperwork for brand. Fuel pump was replaced. Car sat 13 months before "rebirth". Don't want to spend time / money replacing working parts. How do I go about plugging into EVAP system to do a DIY cigarette smoke test ( brand undecided) ? Engine on or off ? Any direction to post or write up is appreciated.
