    Okay, I will see if the valve here is the culprit. I've also heard of a tank breather valve being the problem? Where would that be located?

    Code P0443-evap purge valve ciruit

    The only breather I know of is the vent valve under the hood, which I replaced. #20 here is labeled "breather", but they kindly cut off the drawing

    Someone else may know of a different tank breather located elsewhere.

    I know this is a late reply but the purge check valve is in the fuel injection part diagram area, I think:

    Did this, And check engine disappeared! What should be my next move? Buy a new gas cap?
