Default Ok one more try... What the hell do I do Code- P0441....!!!!!

About a month ago I had a different code error I thought, I had the same code this time, so I went back to find Paul W post and it turned out it was 0491 i had not 0441. Last time I just put some injector cleaner, cleared the code and ran my car for 1200 non stop.... never came back on. Now this one............... What do I do any suggestions

Sounds like a leak is detected in your evaporative emissions system.

Default Did you check the Purge Regulator Valve

using the procedure I posted? If so and you're still getting the code, then check the EVAP canister hose connections for leaks(under the spare tire):

Finally, check the Leak Detection Pump connections by removing the drivers side rear wheel well cover to access it:

Default You can buy some leak detection spray

at your local auto parts store. You spray it on the vacuum lines while the engine is running and if the idle changes, that's where the leak is. BTW, I would start by the purge valve and intake manifold before checking the EVAP canister and leak detection pump.
