That's GEMS of course. My canister is in the same location as Richard's under the radiator overflow. Now I see he has 14 CUX. My NAS 4.0 has no Advanced Evaps..., so it runs! ;-)

Not sure that code on Testbook is multiple misfire but I no longer have access to the LR tech library.

In or around 1997 LR wanted us to put five drive cycles through any vehicle which had had a multiple misfire code reset. That was a real pain and the tech had to take the car home which could be problematic.

Do you recall the specific drive cycle instructions? As I recall, they were lengthy and required so many minutes at various speeds and RPM. My grey matter has turned to mush! ;-)

Requires 5 'drive cycles' to put the MIL light out, simple to do and normal use will do it anyway, it does not however erase the stored fault code for 'multiple misfire'.

The version you have can also throw a MIL light when that happens. Usually extinguishes though as it's non-critical.

Hi Colin
Absolutely brill - yes I do have advanced Evaps, but not exactly as you describe, tracing all the petrol lines, my carbon canister sits on the top of the passenger footwell in front of my radiator expansion tank and the valve (small black plastic box marked purge) sits on top of it. Cause and effect are exactly as you descibe and fit my symptoms exactly; even the overfill that occured in the Shell garage when the auto stop malfunctioned and I overflowed a bit. Final factor there is a long left hand slip on to the M4 that is taken at speed and that would have forced the excess fuel down the vent pipe as this and the filler is on the offside. Will sleep peacefully tonight knowing there isn't trouble brewing up. Moral of the tale - avoid fast left handers after you have overfilled! However every cloud . . . it has highlighted my fuel filter wasn't changed at the last service when it should have been. Will have words with young Jamie as he did the service and was working all around the filter while he was fitting the anti tramp bars.
That's a beer I owe you
