I have a 2003 Kia Spectra and the check engine light came on this morning, I took it to VIP and they ran the machine that tells you the code, but they won't tell you what the code means, you have to figure...

A code P0442 most likely means one or more of the following has happened:
  • A loose or improperly affixed gas cap
  • A non-conforming gas cap (i.e. not factory/original brand)
  • A small leak/hole in a fuel vapor hose/tube
  • Other small leak in EVAP system
  • Faulty vent o-ring seal
  • In other words, you PROBABLY have a vaccume leak. :-)
