    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.

    No reason not to drive it. I would take it to the dealer if it is under warranty. How soon does it come on after clearing it?

    Ok thanks for the help.
    1st: I guess i'll try another genuine tacoma gas cap
    2nd: What is a charcoal canister (I'm assuming another tank), where does it go, is it hard to install, and all the other thousand of questions I could have.
    3rd: What is a canister check valve, and where does that go, is it hard to install, how much $ is it going to cost?
    4th: Is this for sure? Or is this like a guess that this is what i need?

    Thanks for all the help guys! Always good to ask the family!

    The canister is located up front. On my 98 it was inside the drivers fender well. Your's is either there or by the brake booster some where.
