P0455 Evaporative emission control system, large leak detected. Check your gas cap.

Do the other codes staat with a "P" ?

 

no i dont believe so ... they were just as shown ... i know the guy used a determinator scan system ? ... i dont know if that makes a diff .... the gas cap is on ... i think its leaking a little oil is the problem ...
