1999 Jimmy Emissions

I have been smelling gas and noticing that I am using a lot of gas. I checked the codes. I got P0442, Evaporative Emissions System Leak Detected(small leak) and P0446, Evaportative EMission System Vent Control Circuit. Where do I check for the leak and what is a vent control circuit? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Follow your nose!
If you are smelling fuel from inside the car, it could be coming from the external vent near the front cowl & under hood.

Focus on fuel line connection, fuel pressure regulator, and injector seals.

If the fuel smell is coming from the rear, it's probably a plugged purged vent, saturated charcoal filter, or bad hose near the tank. A smoke test is usually used to pinpoint any Evap problems.
