Tech II Diagnosis.........

Well, I guess I was wrong about tightening the gas cap solving my "check engine light". It came on again, and I decided to let the pro's run the Tech II on it. This is what they came up with: 3 error codes reported; large leak in evaporator system; several random misfires; intake temp sensor.
They didn't have time to do any extensive research on the car, so I am wondering which on these is a DIY. They priced me $19 for the new sensor, which assuming I can install myself. Can anyone tell me where the sensor is, and how to install? Evaporator System leak, this one may be tough... I haven't a clue what the evaporator looks like, or where it is, what do I look for(leaking seals, lines, evaporator itself?). Finally, misfiring problems. I am going to change the plugs tonite to BCPR7ES-11. I've read posts about the proper gapping, the best I can do is somewhere between .36 and .39, I don't know how you guys get an exact measurement, I've used 2 different tools and I can't say for sure how EXACT they are. Also, with the 7ES being cooler, what does that mean to me, as far as performance, economy, etc? FYI, the "check engine" light does not stay on consistantly... It seems to appear more when in warm weather, or after extensive driving. Performance and economy is only mildly affected. Thanks in advance!
