What is the EVAP system in a car?
The EVAP system is a closed system that captures fuel tank vapors and prevents them from escaping into the atmosphere.
What is the trouble code for the EVAP system?

What happens to the evaporative emission control system?
When the vent is closed, under normal purge conditions, the evaporative emission control system is depressurized and allows EVAP Control System (Small Leak) diagnosis. I’ve read on this and other forums that this can happen after off-roading or if you spend a lot of time on gravel roads.
How does the EVAP system affect your performance?
At the same time, the module stores an EVAP-related diagnostic trouble code (DTC) in its memory. If EVAP system problems didn’t trigger the check engine light, you might not realize the system was there. An EVAP malfunction rarely affects vehicle performance (unless the purge valve is leaking) or driver comfort in any way.
Where does the EVAP go in a Chevy?
