The gas tank should have been dropped and cleaned along with the fuel lines etc.
Check for a broken, disconnected, or chewed up vacuum hose for the EVAP system. Especially if the vehicle was stored outside. Mice, rats, squirrels, and other rodents love to chew on vacuum hoses and wiring. Hope that helps!! Jim
