Hey so i was getting all of these codes like large evap leak, small evap leak, and gascap so i checked out my evap canister for cracks.... nothing i even disconected it to make sure nothing was cracked so i followed the lines and found my culperet... sorry for the spelling... anyway its an evap line the one that sits to the right of the line on the evap box connected to the white box thing that is attached to the evap canister... this line runs all the way back to the top of the gas tank and into a white plastic plenum looking thing on the top of the gas tank....mine line connecting to that plenum looking thing on top of the gas tank is snaped and not connected anymore.... can anyone tell me what that plenum looking thing is and how or what i should replace to replace that broken part i have.... also my ESP senor light and my little jeep swurve picture light are both on and are on constantly.... does this look like a job for the ever dreaded stealership???? someone help its about to be winter up here in the the north country of NY and it gets rough REAL rough in the winter!!!! thanks to anyone who has any information to give ill try to take pictures and post them so its a better description of what im talking about.. FYI i tried to super glue the broken part together again in hopes it would hold me over till i can get to the money to fix it properly bad decission??

a.) Wrong forum section to post this in, check around and read a bit to familiarize yourself before posting.
b.) Not sure what you mean by plenum but if it's the part on top of the gas tank where the filler hose connects to then you may need a new gas tank since I believe this part is welded to the tank
c.) Cyanoacrylate glue might work temporarily but generally isn't strong enough. Depending on how it is broken you might be better off with two component epoxy putty.
d.) Get it fixed/sealed soon because water could get into the gas tank and that doesn't play well with engines especially at freezing temps.
e.) Get a Code read out from Autozone or so for your ESP/BAS failure indication
