Gas cap seal replace. 06 GX
Got the warning lights this morning Ce, Vsc off Trac and Slip. Was headed out of town so switched cars and read code when I got home. P0456 small evap leak. Reading on Club Lexus and remembering I had same issue with 06 4Runner. I remembered I had the gas cap seal still sealed in the bag and in a drawer. For some reason when I ordered the cap for the 4Runner I got the extra seal back in 2010. Swapped it out and now cap feels better on remove. GX is running good so I will let the lights stay on for few days and see if they clear. I will try to attach a picture of the seal pack and part number.

nice, I had gone to a local hydraulics shop here in the area and they gave me some o-rings to fit all 3 of my cars gas caps. He told me a lot of folks come in there for these.

The cross section of this seal looks kinda like Pacman, a V Shape on the outside. NBR Nitrile hydraulic o-ring is good with gasoline I think ethanol could work on it a little, If working for you that's a good thing!
