Okay, went for a number of start/stop/idle trips for a couple of hours after I got home. I've decided that there is nowhere nearby where I can cruise for a solid 6 minutes at 1500-2200 RPMs w/o having to stop. At least not for 5-8 cycles.

That said, I thought I was able to get through the cycle several times despite traffic, but I could not get everything to test "OK" or "Ready"

With a new gas cap, the CEL came on and I threw the same dang code 0442 small evap system leak. I'm ordering the hoses from FCP tonight.

The code reader returns the following data.
----------------------
MIL Status ON (Due to the CEL)
Misfire Monitor OK
Fuel System MON OK
Comp. Component OK
Catalyst Mon OK
Htd Catalyst N/A
Evap System Mon INC
Sec Air System INC
A?C Refrig Mon N/A
Oxygen Sens Mon INC
Oxygen Sens Htr OK
EGR System N/A
----------------------

I'm wondering if the Evap System Monitor is incomplete due to the CEL and the small leak.

The Secondary Air System seems to mean very little - supplemental device for CAT... Does it need to set to pass emissions inspection?

The O2 "Sens Mon" is different from the O2 "Sens Htr" How?

At this rate, my 20-day inspection will expire before I get the system to set.

THIS is pretty cool...
