Emissions leak

Got a cel code saying I have a small gas leak. EveryOne is dating its my gas lid not on tight. But it is. Anyone else have this problem? Also will any aftermarket headers work to get rid of the catylitic converter cel code off?

You have a vacuum leak? First thing you will have to do is check all your vacuum hoses for leaks listen for hissing while the vehicle is running. You could even take some carb cleaner and spray it along the vacuum lines and listen for a change in idle speed. If the idle raises at any point while spraying youve found the area of your leak. Be careful though using that method there have been reports of ppl setting there engine bay on fire.

As far as your other code goes what is the actual code coming up?
