EVAP still fails. Anyone have an idea on which DTCs are relevant to this? I've taken a gander, tried a few with no luck. Surely there is a way to bypass the whole 1/2-3/4 full tank, x-miles, x-cycles, full moon, sacrificial virgin..... sigh...

BUT, you got me through the O2 readiness tests! Thank you VERY much. I also had previously modified the CAT test.

 

 

It looks like it!

 

The only way "around" it is to disable the system so it is no longer a ready/not ready situation. But if you got the 02's to go through and only have evap not ready you can probably pass. A lot of cars are allowed 1 not ready.

And if you do the evap the way I said it'll help, it's not like it's hard. Have the fuel between 1/4-3/4 and let it idle from cold. Do that a couple of days in a row if need be and otherwise just drive it.

 

Good to know. I'll give that a shot. Its more a point of pride to get evap cleared now

 

Send me a PM. I have a lot of experience with passing in VA. LOL

 

LOL I hear ya, I get that way sometimes and think to myself "challenge accepted"

 

I'll have everyone know I failed spectacularly. While all monitors were good to go, they looked too close at my long tubes and after market cat setup. My emissions inspection was more intimate than a prostate exam. They put my Yukon on a lift to fully inspect! My stock ypipe and cats were toast so a new one is in the mail. Back to stock for a short while.

Ahh well, its the game we play!

 

That sucks. On the bright side, at least a couple more squirrels won't develop lung disease while your truck is stock.

 

Yup!

BTW I love your avatar/forum picture. Great pic from a documentary about schizophrenia.
