CHECK ENGINE light - code P0440

[Vendetta]

I dont disagree with the idea of a service station. I just disagree with strangers touching my cars.

Things ain't what they used to be.

Really unfortunate.

Hahahah, they sure aren't. When I was 18 and bought my first car gas was .25 cents a gallon. And for that you got your tire pressure checked, windows cleaned, oil and water checked besides pumping the gas without asking. Plus there were S&H Green stamps redeemable for goods and at times promotional glasses and dishes for free. God, you kids make me laugh. Don't touch my car, lol.

Well I actually came in here to see what I could find about the Check Engine light. I haven't bothered to have the code read. But the mention of gas caps rings a bell. I managed to drive over my gas cap when filling a couple of weeks ago. I found another one in my stash of things 'all-automotive' that I dont throw away. Thats probably it. It doesnt ratchet down like the original one, so just maybe.......................

Update: Removed gas cap, sealing ring cracked, purchased new gas cap, reset computer, fingers crossed.

Update: New gas cap seems to have solved the problem, no reocurrance of the Check Engine light.
