Chances are that your *purge valve in the engine compartment is malfunctioning, lives above/behind the alternator. There is also another suspect valve that lives on your filler neck behind the fender liner. Pelican has a tech article on replacing that one.

When one or the other has a hard failure you will get a CEL. Most likely a P 0440 to p0455.
