Code PO442
Took the car out this morning for a drive and to pick up a few things from the store....After picking up the items I go to start the car up and the dreaded Check Engine light comes on 
.....Came home right away and hooked up the scanner and code PO442(evaporative leak)...Checked my gas cap and wouldnt you know it...It was loose 
..lol
I filled up with gas a few days back I could have sworn I tightened it...I guess not tight enough
.......Erased the code with the scanner re-tightned the cap and all is well
