No more smoke!
My RTV spackle may have worked. No smoke. It'll take a few drives to confirm that the CEL isn't going to come back on, or the "loose gas cap" warning. But so far it looks promising.

Much of my time during the job is spent hauling things up and down the stairs to the basement or in and out of the storage shed, or running back downstairs when I realize I need something else,or taking a break from standing out in the sun,or using flashlights or work lamps when it gets dark.

What are the symptoms of a leak in the j-hose or EVAP system? Does it affect driveability? I think I have tracked down most if not all of the hose / vacuum leaks on my car but havent investigated the j-hose. Thanks

I’ve noticed a slight flutter on idle down from overrun when my evap or cold air door vacuum line has a leak, it’s subtle but noticeable.
