We need to know the exact code that was set. This indicates where the EVAP system problem lies.

Hey I have i 99 accord ex and just had the crank shaft, cam shaft, and oil pump seals replaced but my emissions light comes a lot, most of the time it because the oil is low so I put oil in it but I shouldn’t be having oil leaks anymore but iv noticed theres a lot of caked up oil on the bottom of the distributor and my car will some times shutter like its trying to go but the car will stop when I let off the gas and slowly get back on it, it’s got the 2.3 vtec, it drives great when it’s not acting up. What could be causing these problems

I thought you claimed that your father was a mechanic in another post so why are you asking questions on a forum . And also you are reviving old threads .

Yes my dad is a mechanic but I don’t talk to my dad but thanks for being rude and I know most stuff but it’s nice to hear feed back from people who know what their doing and don’t have a complex.
