I have a 2000 Odyssey. I can't find in the owners manual where the
evaporative canister is. I'm getting a 1457 code which says there's
something wrong with the emissions system and I want to check out the
canister and tubing, etc. before I have to take it in to the dealer.

Any ideas where the canister is or where I can find out where it is?

TIA

It is on the driver side under the rear of the intake air filter. This code
is also generated by leaving the gas cap loose. Make sure it is tight, at
least 3 clicks. For tons of information on it visit www.odyclub.com forum
and search on the code......

Thank you, Woody.

Right indeed - all the code is really saying is that there is a leak
detected in the vapor system. The gas cap comes to mind, with a 2000 being
pretty young for the next suspect: a cracked vapor hose.

I can't find it. I see what looks to be the evap valve with its hose
running to the air intake. And I see a hose running toward the back of the
engine compartment to the firewall. The diagram on the inside of the hood
shows an arrow pointing aft with the words "To Canister."

And what happens when you follow that hose back? What's at the end?

My evap canister is a big black cylindrical thing on the firewall near the
fuel filter.

The only black thing on the firewall is the vacuum brake assist. The hose I
was talking about drops down from the firewall and heads toward the rear of
the van. I haven't been able to get under the van yet to see where it
terminates.

That end sounds like it is headed for the tank. You'd want the end that goes
to the firewall... does it actually go through the firewall into the
passenger compartment? I wouldn't expect that.

No. It drops down below the floor and heads back. The van isn't here now
so I can't trace it out. But in the engine compartment, that tubing goes to
the evap solenoid or whatever that valve is called. The other tube out of
the solenoid goes to the air intake.
