    take the driver side back wheel off, then unscrew the plastic cover, behind it is the evap canister fill hoses and another solenoid on the top of the canister tank. theres a few line to and from this tank, see if any or broken or off.

    some times the canister tank just takes a crap, if its got gas inside, ( you'll have to unbolt it and shake it) then it needs to be changed.

    No broken lines.
    No fluid sound when I shake the big canister, I took the solenoid apart and it's wet inside. I ordered a new one and will install it today. If the old one was wet, what's to keep this new one from getting wet and malfunctioning too?
