I had my EGR repaired in my 2002 Ford Escape, with 72000 mi and with 3.0L V6, and went to test the emissions and the evaporative system came up not ready. What drive cycle do I have to perform for the PCM to become ready to pass emissions?

I don't have the specifics in front of me, bu I do know that the fuel tank must be between 1/2 and 3/4 full. I believe it also needs to be done from a cold start as a few sensors need to be at comparable specs. I think it takes two cycles to run the monitor through...but not positve. I did find this:
