[QUOTE="DAM Sport Trac, post: 1048344, member: 76293"] Check the gas cap. It’s either loose or you need a new one. That is typically why the gas cap light is on. There could be other issues but that is the first step. If the cap isn’t loose, unscrew it and then screw it back down and make it click a couple of times. Clear the codes and drive it. After a couple of trips where the engine has fully cooled off for a few hours (best to let it sit overnight) and drive it again. If the gas cap light comes back on replace it and repeat the process. If the CEL light comes back on without the gas cap light, scan again and address that issue next. One step at a time. [/QUOTE]
