the vehicle: '05 TB LT short wheelbase, 4.2L, ~133k miles.
During the summer, it threw a P0455 code. Replaced the vent solenoid, all was good. No garbage in the line or solenoid filter, just the usual dirt. Now I have a P0422- it could've been there since the solenoid swap, but the truck wasn't driven much during the summer (it's primarily a winter/hauler truck). I did a smoke test through the vent line, and the intake tubing with a home built machine, and wasn't able to find anything. I also tested the purge solenoid, holds a vacuum fine, and clicks while doing a bench test. Truck drives fine. So is it possible that the purge solenoid could still be bad? And will the light shut off if I refill the tank? Just asking, as my code reader shows that the evap monitor is ready, and I'm due for an inspection sticker this month
