My check engine light came on and I checked it and it said the code was P1450 which means Unable To Bleed Up Fuel Tank Vacuum. I have changed the gas cap, fuel filter, and air filter. Somebody please tell me what this could be.

The system is supposed to go under a vaccum if it does not, do to a cap being loose or some other kinda leak it will set this code. It could be a bad purge valve, tank vent. Or one of the rubber lines has cracks in them causeing a leak your just going to have to look around on this one.(NOS)

Check vacuum hoses between the fuel tank and carbon canister under the hood for damage.
