Just A thought, EVAP codes turn on your light, expensive to fix, hard to relocate, Am I on the right track? EVAP codes cause no drivability problems they are strictly for emissions laws. Buy A cheap OBD2 code reader and verify light is on due to evap codes and don't worry about it until you would require an inspection or air care inspection. When inspection is required tell the shop you can't leave the truck but require it back right away as you are going out of town and you would prefer if you drove it in the shop yourself(you dont trust anyone driving your baby). Before you shut it off be prepared to clear the codes and it would require 2 ignition cycles to turn on the light again and run the diagnostic self test to reset the code and illuminate the ses light. Pain in the a$$ but cheaper than the repairs every time your EVAP system plugs up.
