what can i do to get rid of it?
i'm throwing a code right now for it PO441 or something like that

i've heard i can get rid of everything down to where it comes out of the fender and block it off at that point and then drill a small 1/16" hole into the gas cap to compensate....

any other ways to go about this?

 

P0441 Evaporative Emissions (EVAP) system no flow (during purge)

Could be a simple case of the line being plugged with carbon, the solenoid plugged, or sticking closed, a leak in the vacuum line from the TB to the purge solenoid or a faulty flow sensor switch. Fixing it wouldn't be a bad idea. You will get a lot of fuel smell in the back around the fuel tank without the purge system.

 

yeah the gas smell was the reason i asked if there was another way to eliminate it without getting the stench

flow sensor switch, where is that located?
the solenoid is located on the passenger side of the manifold right? atleast on my '97 neway

thanks Fred
