P1457: EVAP Control System Leakage (EVAP Canister System)

People always believe its the fuel cap, its hardly ever anymore. Disconnect a evap line under the hood, command the vent solenoid shut with your scanner, smoke the system. Should show up, I've had a lot of these with the canister purge solenoid, but you need to smoke it.
