Another head gasket
Well still tracking down leaks. But all in all It seems like it might be a lot of hoses not tight.
I did however have a nice turn of events. I had 3 codes 1 for large evap leak. 2 codes for o2 lean. I noticed they all came on at the same time everytime it was reset. So I figured they were related.
I didn't have anything saying the purge valve was bad. But the hyundai replacement was in my cart so I just ordered it. Swapped it the end of last week and apparently it was causing all my codes. Have been driving it and nothing came back. Even got a emissions test and passed. I didn't suspect this as the main problem. Just maybe the evap. But figured it probably wasn't because usually nothing is that easy.

Well, today on my birthday...I'm guessing my head gasket has gone on the disco. It acted funny when it started but seemed fine. After about 15 min. Started to overheat and got a code for cylinder 6 misfire. Let it cool started again. White smoke.
I'm sitting in it right now to try and let it cool to get it back home (I'm about 5 min away)
can I just do a headgasket on 1 side? Since I know they were both done not long ago?
