I cleared the codes tonight. As of yet there are no codes showing. I did
check the cap. The central perforated portion shows some rust tinted
discoloring. If the code returns I will know to replace the cap. I did
have one person ask if there was a vacuum (whooshing) sound when the cap
came off. I don't recall the other day but it did not tonight but I don't
know what the effect would be as the temperature was 92 this afternoon, it
is 75 now and my garage is underground so it is probably even cooler.

We will see it the code returns.

Thanks to everyone for all their assistance, I really do appreciate it.

The new cap went on this afternoon shortly after the junkyard told me to
