IPC code P0442

[marathon26]

Does anyone know what IPC code P0442 means? My decode list does not include this code and I have not been able to find a decode list on the site.

Which Vette? Y2K?
The P0442 is for a small leak detected in the Evaporative emissions system within the car. This could be caused by a slightly loose gas cap, or refuelling while the engine is running.

The one with the problem is the Y2K. I will do the checks as suggested in the other post. Thanks.

I took the gas cap off, wiped it and the filler pipe, put the cap back on and all is well. Thanks wishuwerehere82.
