I feel pretty lucky that I was able to piece together all the symptoms, and correct the one assumption that it was happening AFTER the truck was started. It was a pretty easy fix. I've added some fabric harness wrap and some plastic conduit around that whole area and around the rear bumper. The inlet and outlet of the charcoal canister felt and looked pretty nasty. I'm going to preemptively replace the charcoal canister while the tank is down, so I don't have to drop it again in the near future.Dang! Good find. That's like looking for a needle in a hay stack. That was a s*** ton of work, but your persistence has paid off.
Props for sticking with it and finding the culprit. It'll likely help future people running into this problem. Should be an easy fix from here.
My assumption is the evap canister is working in conjuction with the Purge VSV because I cannot find a direct reference to the canister. That said, "L" for blue, the blue wire appears to be a common color for positive signal wires, typically an output from a sensor/input to ECM.Curious if anyone of the other LRA tank owners have similar chafe in this area...Great find and I hope this clears all of your problems. For S&Gs, what does that blue wire do for that evap box?
