That code is for a fuel pressure sensor low voltage. The pressure sensor is located on top of the fuel pump. The fuel tank will need to be dropped in order to service the pressure sensor.

SOURCE: emissions failure due to an evap code

Your emission sensors seem to be just a 'spec' out of normal (I would not call them defective!), but it could also be tainted fuel. Just to pass test I would buy the gas treatment at your local auto parts specifically for emission testing. Ask them at the counter. It will get you passed.

1999 chevy siverado 4.8l diagnostic tester says i have po300,po121,po122,po440,p0449,po452 and gm p1639

Maybe.
Codes 121 and 122 are for the throttle position sensor circuit.
Code 400 is EGR and codes 449 and 452 are for the EVAP system.
Code 1639 is for a problem with the 5 volt reference circuit from the engine computer.
The throttle position sensor could be failing which could prevent the gas pedal from working. And the 5 volt reference problem could shut down the computer which would kill the engine. EGR is an emissions component and EVAP is the system that vents gas fumes from the gas tank.
Codes are only a guide for a mechanic to troubleshoot the circuits involved. They do not mean a component is faulty.

Codes 446 and 452

P0446 has nothing to do with the canistor !
DTC P0446 Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Vent System Performance
This DTC tests the evaporative emission (EVAP) system for a restricted or blocked EVAP vent path. The control module commands the EVAP canister purge solenoid valve Open and the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve Closed. This allows vacuum to be applied to the EVAP system. Once a calibrated vacuum level has been reached, the control module commands the EVAP canister purge solenoid valve Closed and the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve Open. The control module monitors the fuel tank pressure (FTP) sensor for a decrease in vacuum. If the vacuum does not decrease to near 0 inches H2O in a calibrated time, this DTC sets.

Failed 2001 chevy blazer code 452

(PO452 general motors code, low evaporative emmisions control input) Believe it or not it could be that the gas cap is not on tight or needs to be replaced. Other than that: vacuum line or evap. canister leak.

2002 Cavalier error code 440 and 452 What do they mean?

This indicates that a part of the Evap control system  is no longer functioning correctly. The Evap system consists of many parts, including (but not limited to) the Gas Cap, fuel lines, carbon canister, purge valve, and other hoses. The (EVAP) emission control system prevents the escape of fuel vapors from a cars fuel system. Fuel vapors are routed by hoses to a charcoal canister for storage. Later, when the engine is running a purge control valve opens allowing intake vacuum to siphon the fuel vapors into the engine.
A code P0440 could mean one or more of the following has happened:
The gas cap is not installed or working properly
The purge solenoid has failed
The canister is plugged and not working properly
TRY this first: Remove and reinstall the gas cap or replace, clear the code, and drive for a day and see if the codes come back.
Inspect the Evap system for cuts/holes in tubes/hoses
Inspect for damaged or disconnected hoses around the Evap purge solenoid
Check and/or replace the sensor
Check and/or replace the purge valve

P0452 Evaporative Emission Control System Pressure Sensor Low Input

Good luck and hope this helps. Recap star with the simple and replace the gas cap with a dealer OEM not a after market. If that does not fix it then change the sensor as indicated with the P0452 code. You can get the sensor from Auto Zone and they can give yo the step by step instruction to get the job done. Good luck and keep me posted.
