check the wires that run along side your passenger header, that goto your crank position sensor and your O2 sensor..

The trans and charcoal canister purge solenoid are on the same circuit, so either one could be the cause. Look up the EVAP code for your year at gearchatter.com, some of the desciptions/diagnostics have a wiring schematic. Maybe disconnect the solenoid and then see how the tranny responds?

check your o2 wires. if they melted together on your headers (assuming you have headers) it def. will pop your eng sen fuse.
