If you go through the menus on your scanner, you should see something called an evap test. Its a self diagnostic process that tests the whole evap system. It takes a little while to do, but it checks everything. Also, you can't clear evap codes. They're still there. The pcm transfers them from pending to permanent. Your scan tool probably can't read permanent codes, so if you have one that does, you'll see that they are still there.

Thanks for sharing your wrenching with us Kenny.

When people fill the tank with fuel, they will top off the tank until it is full right to the top of the cap and this will drowned the purge and canister. The purge valve can actually break when you completely full of fuel because the fuel is non compressible always stop the moment the fuel nozzle kicks off the fuel when filling your vehicle.

[@crautoguy8384]

Great video. When I'm Driving to set monitors I have a 10-year-old $150 Harbor freight one that is spot on. super simple And I have 4 or 5 different Very expensive Professional scan tools. When it comes to watching The monitor's Centech Harborfreigh is the simplest easiest best one. It instantly gets into the system without too much trouble because it's very simple. But that is the only thing it does well besides read codes.

[@AT-wl9yq]

Do any of them read permanent codes?

[@bigbill709]

I used to drive a 2013 transit connect with the 2.0 4 banger it was my Napa delivery vehicle I always thought it would make a nice camping vehicle.

[@AT-wl9yq]

Thats a completely different vehicle. The Connect is an Escape. The one in the video is a much bigger vehicle, and as far as i know, its not based on another vehicle.

[@scottymoondogjakubin4766]

Quit overfilling your fuel tanks ! Out of all my evap repairs this is my #1 prob ! The purge valve ! 2nd would be charcoal cannister 3rd would be mice ! Go one click and thats it !

[@greggc8088]

It would seem, evident by the super high failure rate, that Ford must have farmed out production of their purge valves to Dorman. 🤣

[@Michael-yi4mc]

I cleaned my throttle body yesterday. Kenny helped me save at least a hundred dollars in labor.

[@bobby9195]

Wow,must be a lot of things going wrong with this one, it's a piddle truck, piddle with this, piddle with that 😅😂😊. Thanks for the great videos 😊

[@dougdrake7663]

The solenoid Coil engineers have for some time have been putting diodes in the coils as fuses, It could be the diode is failing.

[@jthonn]

I thought he overfilled the gas tank or left the gas cap loose. Good video, and just because the check engine light comes on, does not mean you did something wrong, especially when there is that many miles on it. A piece of electrical tape over the check engine light will do the trick.

[@thomasculligan4348]

I like the new glasses hopefully they’re new or at least I don’t recall ever seeing them before!

[@Michael-yi4mc]

Let’s go to “Mexico “!

[@Qchiko]

Thanks for the video!

[@bigbill709]

I hear it loud and clear!

[@DS-ss7vl]

I have the same scan tool. Where did you get the extended length cable for it? I need to be able to use it under the hood also.

[@paisleyprince5280]

Amazon sells generic obd2 extension cables

[@DS-ss7vl]

@@paisleyprince5280 Ok. Thx.

[@kenforu1531]

In some shops yes...in my book NO!

[@thomaszavacki5647]

Can you please use the Kingbolen k-10 scanner more in your video's?????, I am looking to upgrade from my Launch x431 diagun v to the kingbolen k-10 scanner

[@Michael-yi4mc]

It’s 81F in Honolulu, Hawaii, but it feels like 75F because I’m on a nudist beach.

[@mikedayitt]

is that launch a good scanner for a diy drive way mechanic ?

[@WrenchingWithKenny]

Absolutely! I comment all the time about what a great scanner it is. Honestly, if I bought the Launch first, I wouldn't have bought the Snap-on scanner. Thanks for watching. Keep wrenching 🔧

[@neiliewheeliebin]

What percentage do they typically run at? Mine always says 70% which doesn't seem right to me

[@bigbill709]

See ya next time Kenny

[@bigbill709]

[@markdelozier6749]

[@WrenchingWithKenny]
