21 is not a big deal. If you search you can find your answer for the evap code.

Nooooooo You got it wrong! 31 Is the code that tells you your CO-DRIVER is on board!! I have been searching like many others, for a fix other than removing the light! That one you could be stuck with for a spell.

So now at 44 what the hell do I do?

12 means the ecu has been reset within 50 key cycles
21 o2 is not cycling like it is supposed to be...replace it
31 check all hoses for clogs, all wiring to make sure no breaks at the plugs, purge solinoid may very well be bad..you are correct
12 = end of codes
