Hi,

Recently my 1999 Accord LX's engine light came on. The engine light
code turned out to be P1457. Researching the net showed that it is a
common issue and is ultimately due to the Canister Vent Shut valve
becoming faulty. The local garage quoted me $40 labor to replace this
valve. Since it sounds pretty cheap for the labor, I am suspecting
that it is something relatively easy and possibly can be replaced
myself. Does any of you have any experience replacing this valve? Is
it hard to replace? Any specials tips that I should be aware of? I
am not a super handy person, but I usually do most of the regular
maintenance myself.

Thanks for any comments.

Eddy
