I just did mine last week and didnt unhook the battery (wasnt in Woods instructions) and have not had a problem since.

what he said, but also rub a little oil on the ring to assist the seal

Also make sure you have it turned right side up. It'll give you a bunch of stupid codes and lights if it's upside down.

I had similar and finally added 8 hose clamps to my extensions, one hose was loose after trying to push it over a lip on the can connector and was leaking. All good now, the computer will reset after awhile if the leak is corrected. I got the gascap readout & major and minor leak codes BTW.
