Re: OBD Code P0441 What is it?

It seems to be a common problem with mid 90's Corsicas. I believe it has to do with the evaporative system and indicates an air leak in your fuel system. Primarily to do with the gas tank, cap, etc... It may be as easy to fix as a new gas cap but can't promise it. You could buy the scanner and try resetting the module. Some folks say the problem does not come back when they do so. Others report it comes back within a day or two. I don't recommend resetting it just to pass emissions though, stiff penalties for trying to to get around your state's emission control standards if somebody sees you pressing that reset.

Turn your gas cap a few more clicks and see if it goes away. Also check the vacuum lines going to the evap canister under the hood. Its under the coolant reservior.
