31000 Miles
1/2 Tank of Fuel.
Check Engine MIL comes on.
Engine Code P045
After searching a little. P045 is a leak in the evaporative system.
Seems that my gas cap was loose. Stupid me probably didn't twist it hard enough the last time I gassed up. And there probably wasn't enough pressure left at 1/2 tank of fuel with a loose gas cap.
Computer says that there is a leak. After screwing the gas cap tightly, and resetting the computer, the check engine condition is clear again.
Just wanted to share that with you guys.
