Come along with Eric O. at the SMA shop as we have a look at this 2011 Ford Escape with a "P0456 EVAP Small Leak." In this video we do a quick diagnosis on the EVAP system and how to find this "small leak" when the smoke machine would not be much of a help because there is no visible leak that we would see. Enjoy!

P0456 EVAPORATIVE EMISSION SYSTEM LEAK DETECTED (VERY SMALL LEAK)

Description: The powertrain control module (PCM) monitors the complete evaporative emission (EVAP) control system for the presence of a very small fuel vapor leak. The system failure occurs when a fuel vapor leak from an opening as small as 0.508 mm (0.020 inch) is detected by the EVAP running loss monitor test.
