I am done riding until the plague passes. I read the Merida paper yesterday afternoon and decided it was best. Nurses are being attacked, in public places, for being on the front line with the capacity 'to infect us all'. ¡Sad!
I truly hope it doesn't devolve a lot further. There was another story about a family in a town nearby being isolated and accused of being infected. The husband lost his job over it. Very superstitious.

I've been doing a lot of "virtual" riding. It's fun, and it relaxes me...to a degree. And, in true video game fashion, it allows me to unlock and use "neat" things, which always makes me feel good.

Enjoy. I don’t know who U.S. Cavalry is, but that path quote is attributed variably to R. W. Emerson and someone named Muriel Strode.

Check obvious stuff like gas cap, big leaks. Find the vent control solenoid. It should have battery voltage on the pink wire with key on engine off . It's probably near the front of the tank. Sometimes the wire breaks inside the insulation. If you don't have scan tool with outputs you cold apply power and ground to the vent solenoid and it should click. If that checks out test the purge solenoid. It's on the engine near the throttle body. It should have power on the pink wire too. It should pass vacuum when it has power and ground. If you have data on your scan tool look at the fuel tank pressure sensor first. It should read 0 vacuum key on. If it reads something other than atmospheric pressure with the engine off, it needs to be replaced. The only exception is if you drive a while and stop and open the gas cap and there's a lot of vacuum. This would still see the FTP sensor go to 0 once the vacuum is relieved.
If you drive a lot of dirt roads the canister could be restricted. Let me know if you have any questions about evap stuff.
I didn't see the part about the evap code being consistent last night.

In other news, we have to make final decision for daughter 2 college by the end of the month. My wife and I have accepted that although it’s pricey, we are willing to accept NYU. USC is still possible but distance makes us less comfortable with that option, even though it’s arguably the best school for film and the best school for “student experience.”
Just my two cents.
Edit: Happy Belated Birthday!

Bike Content: Single bike out of the van, tandem assault vehicle going in.
Should be 50s with 15 mph wind in an hour or so. I was going to stay in but wife said load the tandem and I don't argue with my wife. Nope. Never.

We had a random (1 to 10 minutes)low rail pressure and fuel pump low voltage codes this week, fuel pump 10 amp fuse with cracked filament. Continuity test of fuse ok, initial start 25.6 VDC, then dropped to@11 VDC, after random amount of time . Replace $.05 fuse, clear code problem gone, 6 hours of diagnostics , oh what fun.

Anyway, I never thought this was a surgery problem. My neck has started to creak and make noises, though. Not sure if that's aging or what.

Hard to know for sure, but I sense some outdoor mask shaming here.
