Cel light and P0456 diagnostic reading indicates an EVAP leak. Large fuel leak discovered emanating from the fuel tank area when tank is at full.

The roll-over valve on the top of the fuel tank cracked allowing gas to escape when the tank was over half full. The rollover valve is part of the tank assembly and cannot be replaced by itself. I had to purchase a new tank assembly for $1300 plus labor.
