      only one code PO456 EVAP emission control system, leak very small

      I recall filling up with gas to overflow on a very hot day. The engine check light came sometime afterwards. great car only replaced one part in 16 years, alternator froze, in 16 years except tires, battery and wipers. Leo

        Did you try clearing the code and see if it returns?

          The check engine light went blank and after a week now has not reappeared.
          Thanks for steering me to the code reader. Leo

    Assuming it’s still running OK, go by one of the chain auto parts stores and have them read out the codes/descriptions for you and come back here to share with all.
