Well the old Tb has been hard to fill for some time now. Usually just in the cold but then it would linger when the ambient temps were warm over the summer. Never any codes until today with the P0446. I am guessing this has something to do with the solenoid next to the canister? Anyways, just looking for some insight. thanks!

Could be the solenoid or the valve...but I'd go with the solenoid.

For the hard to fill, a few have had issues with the filler hose being kinked.

Me being one. I found that the 06+ hoses don't have the kink in them. Every MY before that that I looked at at the junkyard, the hoses were kinked. I haven't had that issue since I changed it.

Thanks for the info. On the list to do is to rip that canister and the solenoids off and take a look at what there maybe to find.
