Default evap problem

I have an 06 LS2. I installed a m112 supercharger a few years ago. I have been getting a code P0455 and a GAS CAP on DIC warning. I have replaced it twice but still have same issue. Is there something in the vacuum lines or a valve that could have gone bad. Car runs great but have a problem with CT emission.

Thanks

Need to smoke test the fuel system to locate the leak. Possible purge solnoid stuck on or leaking, Vent valve leaking, Or even a fuel leak somewhere on the tank/lines.

Any GM dealer will have the Evap smoke tester. Make sure they know how to use it so you are not wasting your money on the diag.

Not going to be a fuel leak. Most likely a vacuum leak in the system. Could be a purge/vent solenoid not quite seating, or a bad o-ring at a connection, or even a kinked line, or a pinhole in a line.

Has this been an issue ever since the blower went on, or something that has just popped up?

Just what I have been looking for most of this afternoon. I think that it might be the fitting that comes with the m112 that attaches to the bottom of the evac solenoid. It will not seat, seems that the elbow is to short to allow it seat. I hope!
