    If your referring to the red EVA on the scan tool that just means the monitor has not run for the EVAP system, it doesn't necessarily mean there's a problem it's just saying the monitor hasn't run.
    The EVAP monitor can be kinda tricky to get to run, the file I attached shows the conditions that have to be met for the monitors to run.

    is it running okay? You have no codes….

    Does your truck shake in drive after it warms up?
