Default Any Ideas? Code P0440

Hi all,

Been a little while.

I'm getting code P0440 Evaporative Emission Control System Malfunction
I was wondering if anyone knows what causes this or what I should start testing. Would the EGR have anything to do with this?
Thanks in advance for help.

When it popped up on my last one the only way i got it to go away was to replace all the evap lines, after a certain amount of use they just start leaking... its part of regular maintenance IMO. So... the cheap way out is go buy black duct tape and wrap the evap lines. It will tell you whether or not the lines were the problem. If they are, you just fixed it. if they aren't move to step 2.
