replaced coil pack still has misfire going to check injector then compression still have code 452 all vacum lines good so going to try and find a fuel tank pressure sensor that what another forum kia tech said.will let you know what i find

check that compression, I had one at my Kia dealership that had a broken valve spring and that's what caused the misfire. Just something to look for.

hey thanks for the info if it does it again will check.so far i removed the plugs and gaped at 39 thous instead of .44 stated from kia only reason i did is cause it ran perfect no misfire before the tune up and i read a post saying something about wrong gap in manual.its been 3 days so far no misfire.still have the code 452 evap pressure sensor signal low if any one can help.checked and replaced all damaged or broken vac lines tested purge solenoid and the bypass solenoid for resitance and volts as the book says r within specs and the sensor on the fuel tank has voltage.any help would be apreciated thanks for all the help
