Get back to you tomorrow. Im at work now.
#5496 of 5644 back by kneisl1 Dec 20, 2008 (4:51 pm)
Ha thanks to google Im back!   It could be as simple as your gas cap. Is it loose, or is the gasket bad? Check it out.   440 441 and 446 have to do with the gas fume evaporative control system. You could have a loose hose or possible a bad charcoal cannister. Youd want to check all the hoses going to and from the gas tank and charoal cannister for cracks, kinks, or just being loose. 446 is the cannister 440 is the tank. So its something around there. Also could be a loose hose on the air filter because hoses come from those things to it.   Good news: since its emissions related possibly it is still under warranty.   Good news: not likely to cause dammage if you run with it UNLESS your cannister is full of gas in which case that makes it a bomb. Easy to check that.   Good luck and let us know what you find out! Replies to this message: rep5858 (Dec 21, 2008 7:19 am)

Replying to: kneisl1 (Dec 20, 2008 4:51 pm) Thanks for your help in advance! How long is the warranty on emissions? the car is a 2001 with 200,000 miles. I'll check that stuff today. ummm did u say bomb? How would I check that? Could be important lol. I replaced the gas cap.
#5498 of 5644 bomb by kneisl1 Dec 21, 2008 (1:02 pm)
Find the charcoal cannaster and start pulling the hoses off. (one at a time so you can replace corrrectly!) If gas comes out...you got da bomb!     Seriously it happens but its rare. I think you can forget about a warranty claim! Replies to this message: rep5858 (Dec 21, 2008 3:54 pm) rep5858 (Dec 21, 2008 3:59 pm)

Replying to: kneisl1 (Dec 21, 2008 1:02 pm) LOL ok The cannister I believe is under the car near the gas tank? ok ill check the hoses ( again). You know anything about this new toyota Iq. Was a concept car to compete with the Smart. Is already in Europe/ Asia etc, but is suppose to be available in US with safety and emission mods. They say it gets over 55MPH.

Replying to: kneisl1 (Dec 21, 2008 1:02 pm) Oh yeah and this IQ car looks like the Smart, but a little longer and Toyota will intro it to US under the Scion badge. Will cost about 15K.
#5501 of 5644 iq by kneisl1 Dec 21, 2008 (4:15 pm)
I read the iQ will only be offered in the US with the 1.5 liter engine. Replies to this message: nippononly (Dec 21, 2008 11:35 pm)

Replying to: kneisl1 (Dec 21, 2008 4:15 pm) I read 1.3L for the engine displacement, 40 mpg combined or better on the EPA test cycle.
