I have a 2008 Chevrolet Silverado V8 Reg. cab and a check engine light on with error code P0449. Can I get a picture of the EVAP vent solenoid and its location on the vehicle? A picture of the purge valve solenoid and its location as well as the vapor canister. Which wiring or connector should I check dealing with this code. Can I do this work or should I take it to a mechanic?

My trailblazzer keeps intermittly give engine codes P0014, P0449, P1400

p0014 is likely a camshaft solenoid valve, the p0449 is likely a evap vent valve or wiring, and a p1400 (sorry for this one) is likely a cylinder head. based on the codes you asked you have the 4.2l L6 motor.
