    Well if the car is coming up with an EVAP code then I would by no means rule it out as the problem, particularly if it is trying to purge too much. ABS and Trac Light will come on and stay on if one of wheel bearing sensors goes south, which one it is you will need a scan tool capable of reading ABS codes.

    As for verifying operation of the Digital EGR the GP has, Im not sure how to verify operation. I can do it on the older vacuum operated ones but the digital ones Im not sure how to test them.

    Okay well, they cleared the code when I took it in last so they said to wait until it came back on, and they would smoke the system to find the leak and fix it. As for the ABS codes, I've scanned it and says there is no codes or anything wrong, a wheel bearing sensor would so up as a code right? Is there a separate comp(ecu) for those systems? I'll get back to you when the EVAP code is fixed and see if that was my problem all along. Thanks for all the help so far. Mike
