Cel p0440
The wife got a CEL in her '03 corolla. Went to Autozone, got the P0440. Print out reads:
Definition
Evaporative emission control system incorrect purge flow
Probable cause
Leak in EVAP system
Blocked EVAP purge line
Faulty purge VSV
Does anyone have a manual on this car? And what is a VSV(guessing that is some kind of valve). Just looking for someone to point me in the right direction, or give me run down on the EVAP system.

My 2001 is also throwing out a P0440 code. Gas cap replaced but I really dont want to mess with troubleshooting. Does anyone know how to bypass the system so the CEL doesn't come on and I can pass emissions? I know that sometimes resistors can be put in place of a sensor to trick the ecu. I would like to do something like this so I never have to worry about the evap system again.
