Hi:

The best way to find an EVAP leak is to have the system fogged. A mechanic will attach a for machine to the system and where ever the leak is, you will see the fog leaking out.

EVAP leaks are a pain to find. I recommend paying a few bucks to have this done; otherwise, you will most likely drive yourself crazy trying to find it.
