Hello,
I have an issue with a new to me pickup. When I pulled the code, and there was only one, it flashed "32." I found that the hose from the charcoal canister to the bottom of the Throttle Body wasn't actually connected. I got that corrected, but the issue persists.
When I push the truck, at relatively high to WOT settings, the Check Engine Light comes on. It goes out as soon as I let off the long pedal. The only code I've pulled is 32.
Does EVP mean Evap, or does it mean something else? One of the first things I had to do was pull the bed and install a new fill hose. The outer had rotted away. I installed a new fill hose assembly. Could this be a poor seal at the gas cap? The charcoal canister is likely original. It looks a little worse for wear, but the hoses (now) are intact and appear to be sealing up.
So school me on this if I've headed down the wrong path. The truck runs fine, and gets great mileage. I use it for our shop as a parts getter, to which it is nicely suited.
I appreciate any feedback.
