Thunderbird LX 4.6L V8

  • Automatic transmission
  • 90,000 miles

I've replaced the gas cap, purge valve, and rubber tubing. Problem is still there, the only thing left is the charcoal canister, but it's too much of a pain in the ass to get to. I just ignore it and clear the code when it pops up. It only pops up about once a week.
