I would double check for any air leaks. Replace fuel filter. You will also need to reset computer after new parts are installed. This can be done with a hand-held scanner or diagnostic scanner

Evaporative Emission Control System Vent Control Circuit Malfunction
What does that mean?
Evap vent valve has only one purpose. It closes in order to seal the vent so
the EVAP system can pressurize and ensure there are no leaks. Evap vent valve
is usually supplied Batt. voltage with key on. The ECM's driver controls the
ground, and when grounded, activates the valve (closing it). If the ECM detects
a short to ground, and open,or a short to battery voltage on the control circuit,
P0446 will set. Code also may refer to ECM detecting that EVAP system is unable
to achieve or maintain vacuum during test.
Symptoms
There will be no obvious symptoms to driver, other than MIL illumination.
