Wondering what could cause these codes before I start throwing money at it, also can the rich code be caused by the evap code?
The car works perfectly and it threw the codes at the same time no problems with gas mileage or start ups or anything works like new still so I’m.a bit worried shits gonna hit the fan soon hahaI'm not a mechanic, so could be wrong, but I could potentially see how the codes are related. If you have a bad purge valve (stuck open), it would always be drawing un-metered fuel vapors from the canister while running. This could maybe cause a rich condition. At the same time, it would explain the EVAP leak. Did both codes pop up at the same time? Does the car start harder right after filling the gas tank? I'm not one for wildly throwing parts at a car to fix a problem, but for $20ish that might be the first part I looked into replacing.
But I am gonna start with that and if it’s not that I’m gonna assume the codes are separate from each other and go for plugs, evap canister and so on lolI'm not a mechanic, so could be wrong, but I could potentially see how the codes are related.
