Default PO442 EVAP code..advice needed.

1998 D1. Went to inspection station and had this code show up. Original gas cap was cracked in two spots so I went and bought a new one. Went back with new cap, cap passed pressure test but code still showed up. No check engine light. Drives perfectly fine.

Thoughts? Hose issue? I did a search and found only a few threads here. Thanks

If you download the gems_obs.pdf in my link it looks as though the system believes it is not able to pressure test the purge valve due to a small leak. Could be a vacuum line, a PCV line, or the purge valve itself.

The valve is not expensive.. .

Thanks Walt. I'll start with the valve and see if that works.

The link you listed..does this particular one fit even though it says not compatible with the vehicle? I know sometimes parts fit because they are quirky British vehicles. Verifying before I place an order. Thanks again/.

Yes it will I have the exact part in my truck. You will not need the adaptor that it comes with.
