I keep getting this Code.
Apparently there is some sort of gas leak somewhere between my gas gap and the EVAP harness (or something like that).
I'm going to change my gas cap, fuel filter and look into the EVAP.
Anyone have any idea what this is all about?

yeah i got that same code in my gnc 1500 truck,so i went tp my gas cap and took it off and then retighted (spelling) it about 20 mile later the shit turned off. if u have a cap that clicks after it tightens then give it a half to a full twist and then see if that works.
thats what i did to fix mine [Big Grin]

I agree, you might have just not tightened the cap fully, it will set a code if it is not tight. The fuel system is fully pressurized and will set a code if the pressure sensor detects a change.
