    Could be a leak in the evap system somewhere. Possibly cap related. Are you
    in the habit of over filling the tank. This forces gas in the evap system
    damaging it. Evap vent solenoid possibly leaking. Broken hose. For other
    possibilities do a google search..

    P1457 flags an evap system leak near canister. It could be the gas cap, but
    there have been some problems with bad canisters and assocated control
    valves.

    Thank you. I guess I'll have to do some further testing to pinpoint the
    problem. Thanks again.
