An easier system to use (and less expensive) is the Halloween smoke
machines ($40). Just make an adapter with a 3/8" tube and inject the
"smoke" into the evap line. You'll see the leaks.

Check the evap lines at every joint, junction, and connection for cracks
and/or loose fittings. Gas cap is the first place to check though.

<snip> The P0442 is for a small leak in the EVAP system...
 If a smoke machine isn't available, then a propane cylinder and an
audible A/C leak tester can be used. Not much help for us common peons
:-(<snip>

Will this work for us CPs?
