Default Evap code P1042 (I think)

After smoke testing my 2003 , it seems that the smoke is coming from am are above the gas tank. Local guy wants to try to support and lower the tank to get to the actual source. Is there a faster (cheaper) way?

Might want to try the C5 section of the forum. This is the "Ask Tadge" section.

As for your issue, I'd drop the tank unless you feel like cutting out the floor inside your car.

Might want to research if yours is in the vin range of broken tank fittings. I believe late 03's were.
