    EVAP P0446

    Decided to dig in a little more - I might be changing my plans. Looked at the scan from O’Reillys again - it actually suggested starting with the tank pressure sensor. FYI - the guy in this video is slightly unhinged!!

    If that doesn’t do it it’s probably the tank pressure sensor.

    Plan on doing new purge valve, vent valve & gas cap. I’ll probably blow out the lines and clean the charcoal canister as well. Is there a special tool to disconnect the hoses?

    Some good info here - both in the video and in the comments.

    EVAP P0446

    Check engine light came on this morning. Code P0446 - EVAP. Online I’m seeing mixed starting points on this 1. What do you all suggest? First time driving it on a cool morning in Indiana - guessing this Texas truck didn’t know what to do with this dense Indiana air! 2003 suburban 174k.

    Upper intermediate shaft and Wolff bearing installed today = big improvement. Going to take it for an alignment next week & going to ask them to also adjust the steering box. Thinking a little adjustment will likely take out the remaining slop.

    Sounds like a good plan! I used the cerakote headlight restoration kit last week (1 kit did all lights front and rear) - very happy with how they turned out. I also have the cerakote plastic trim restoration kit, haven’t had a chance to try it yet.

    Went looking for pictures of your suburban - they are identical. Plans seem similar too. This was my end goal before I bought mine: This is a screen shot from a Suboverland video - almost went to Idaho to buy from them but the 1 we got in Texas was a better fit. Have you painted your wheels...

    We found it on marketplace. 175k. We have some camping trips planned and I have several hunting and fishing trips in mind, looking forward to seeing where it takes us.

    I didn’t. Thinking I could use a new upper intermediate shaft?

    Ball joints were shot. Plan to install the Wolff steering column bearing tomorrow when it comes in and an alignment later this week. I had my doubts about it needing all these parts but it did! Interesting enough the lift/level it had before isn’t enough now - the control arms must be slightly...

    From what I’ve went through so far the tie rods are worn out and the idler assembly & pitman arm were on their way. This is going to the improvement I was looking for - plan to finish tomorrow.

    Good call for next time! I live in a town that had a Delphi plant (had many family friends that worked there).
