P0440- Some EVAP crap again...

P0133- Slow front o2 sensor response...

Right when I was trying to fix one thing, The AC actuator, I back out of the garage for more light, Then the cars idle was bouncing around...

Time to jack it up :rolleyes:

I'm getting really sick of this car, the DTC web page said that the o2 sensor response could be an exhaust leak, I probably blew out one of those crappy cardboard wrapped in tin foil gaskets lol.

PO 440 means you have a small leak, loose gas cap, or it may be caused by the other EVAP code you had & deleted. (EVAP canister vent solenoid)

Can I delete the whole EVAP system ? I've heard of some people not running it all together?

Yes, You also see hundreds of people running catless as well, Which is a law and a hefty fine.

I'm throwing the P0440, too... first code I've come up with on my car since I bought it. The rubber seal on my gas cap looks like it's cracking, I'm gonna replace it first...

I'm not saying you cant do it, im just letting you know that if you get caught, much like getting caught without a cat, you could be in some fairly big trouble.
