Halfway to work during my 25-mile commute, I noticed that the "check engine" light was on. The car was running fine, but I was still uneasy until I reached my destination.
During my lunch break, I took the car to a local repair shop. Several hours later, I got a call back. The problem? A sensor had detected fuel evaporation caused by . . . a loose gas cap. The car checked out fine otherwise. Apparently, when you fill up, you have to turn the cap so it clicks three times, or the "check engine" light will come on. So don't forget to do that, or you will be screwed.
I'm out $50 for labor. So it goes.
