RE: dakota check engine code???????
EVAP major leak could also be caused by a loose fuel cap. It could also be caused by a leaking / cracked / loose vacuum hose.
I am thinking that maybe when you put the Sea-Foam in, in addition to cleaning the injectors, it also cleaned other things. This may have knocked loose dirt, grease, or grime, that was blocking a leak. This is just a semi-educated guess.

Or a leaky gas cap. Try replacing that, and see what happens. Gotta start somewhere. I chased the same same code around myself and ended up the dealer. Lucky I know the guy pretty well, he just told me to replace the cap, and bring it back to reset the computer. Never came back. Just something to start with I guess.
