I know there are many threads about fueling problems and the P0442 trouble code, I have read through them all and I am coming to the conclusion that my entire EVAP System is wrong. I purchased the car about a year ago and it has a salvage title, so I know it's been through some S***. The "Charcoal Canister" that is behind my driver side rear wheel is round with a plug, and I have not been able to find that same part ANYWHERE. I've gone to parts stores with it and they have no idea what it is, even though it has a FORD emblem on it with a part #, I have tried to research the part and nothing has come up. When I have looked at diagrams and other parts related to the EVAP System, it shows a rectangular canister mounted by the rear wheel (drivers side). This is what is confusing me. Can anyone help with exactly what parts belong where along with part #'s and places I can purchase these parts (besides FORD cuz I'll get screwed with the cost).
As for the P0442 code, I have traced all lines for leaks, used smoke and found 0 leaks/cracks/collapsed hoses. After reading multiple threads I am going to go purchase a new gas cap (which I probably should have done from the get go, thats my bad) and I will give an update and see if the code goes away, I'm just a bit more upset/confused about the EVAP line set up and wondering if that has to do with the fact that I cannot put more than .3 gallons of gas in at a time.
Any responses would be helpful (trash talk accepted if I'm being dumb) haha.
