Default Help me determine why i keep throwing a cell please

thank u for clicking, ok... at least once a week, my check engine light comes on, i scan it with a snap on scanner and it says code 1157 (almost positive thats the #) evap leak, than underneith it says "ok to drive" so at first i thought ok, a gas cap is only like 5-6 bucks so i replaced it.. well that wasnt the problem, any suggestions? the scanner im using has a asian imports primary card up to 2000 but the troubleshooter card is only up to 99's so basically i can clear the code but not see whats causing it, thank you for yout time

i know what this is, it's the solenoids under the car near the gas tank. i'm an acura tech and i see 57's all the time on gsr's especially. no one could figure it out for a while, at one point replacing all the evap solenoids. now i know.
