Default PO442 Dic Code

In short. I have never had any problems before. I was driving down the road and I get the check engine light. I went into the DIC to see what it is, and it gave me.

PO442 H C

I know it has to deal with the EVAP system. I am hoping its just a loose tank cap or bad fuel setting it off. I had some other history codes but nothing major. I cleared all codes in hopes it was just a fluke but it has been two days and now it is the only code still showing current.

Question: How can I clear the code? I have to drive to Maryland next weekend for memorial day weekend and the Z is my only car. Is it going to screw up my car if I take it down with the code still being thrown?

Thanks in advance.

Ok, I may have answered my own question. I ran out to check the gas cap and its loose as hell. Only problem is the ratcheting feature doesn't seem to be working anymore.

Here's hoping to simple fix.
