    All three times, it has happened at the same place under the same conditions. It kicks on at the end of a downhill, which I take in 2nd gear. I shift up to drive, make a sharp left, and BAM, light goes on. All three time on a day of average temp and humidity. Code P1441 all three times.

    Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

    In the kick panel fuse box check the 10 amp fuse C3- This energizes both the Canister & Purge solenoids.If that is OK ck for vacumn leaks at cannister.Check for clogged,kinks or pinched hoses at the Evap sys rubber hose line. Ck the filter in air separator which is located near the vent solenoid valve.
