So i've had a consistent p1451 EVAP code thrown on my '00 gt vert for weeks now. haven't had all much time to disect the problem, but have looked at many of the other threads on here.

i find it somewhat strange that this was the only code thrown, as it seems that anyone else that has had this code has also had another couple emissions codes along with it.

so where do you guys think i should look to find the culpret?

it seems that the purge control sensor and purge canister are a problem, as well as the charcoal canister and solenoid. i've had a smoke test done and all hoses were said to be fine.

any help/advice is appreciated!

a evap leak is hard to diag in person let alone over the internet. I would start by looking at the filler neck. ( they like to crack right where the cap mates to the neck) and I have seen a few VMV's go
