ok my light has come on again and its saying p0449 which is the evap. vent/Solenoid i changed this part = about 1year ago this month. i need to know is there anyway i can clean it or would i have to get a new one? i don't mind spending the 20 bucks on a new one but i do not want to have to buy one every year. and having a gravel parking lot a work is not helping either, so if anyone have any ideals or fixes let me know thanks.

 

Is it ran up by the transmission. If not I think they have a right up on running it up by the trans with longer hose so it doesn't suck as much dust. maybe it can be tuned out. Give shelton a holla.

 

Wierd,I have the same problem.

 

yeah this problem is kinda common.. When i replaced mine i ran the vent up to the top of the filler neck inside the bed-side panel and just zip tied it to the filler neck.. Where did you buy yours for $20?

 

Dealership, I used the one that came off an 02 suburban but if u cross reference it u can buy it from advance auto for like 25 bucks. Heres the number if anyone needs or what it 214-2149 that Advance part number and it's ac delco part.

 

20 bucks dannnnnnnng,beats a 100 note from the dealership.

 

Same here. I did it 3-4 years ago in my HD and haven't had a problem since...

 

$20 bucks is a steal for that part.. When i bought mine i paid around $100 for it, it was an AC Delco part from advance auto parts

 

The updated design is the $100+ part and the original design is the $20 part. They are two different part numbers.
