how do i check my evap system and gas cap?

I would also check the injectors. I just replace one of mines.

I have the same problem. I have a new gas cap, New fuel filter, new regulator. Tommorow im replacing the Injector O rings.

Check to see if the fuel pressure regulator is leaking....

its nice to know i have to check all these things but the catch is i dont know how

Sending unit on the top of the tank may be leaking, are you getting any out of the blue check engine lights?

sorry dude.....if you can see the fuel rail in the back there sould be a fuel pressure regulator with a vacuum line connected to it...pull that line off and see if any fuel is coming out.....as for the fuel tank sending unit...you have to drop the tank to check that....just try to inspect all lines and hoses from the tank to the rail....hope that helps..
