When you put the cap back on, turn
it
to the right until
you hear at least three clicks. Make sure you fully install
the cap. The diagnostic system can determine if the fuel
cap has been left off or improperly installed. This would
allow fuel to evaporate into the atmosphere. See
“Malfunction Indicator Lamp” in the Index.
NOTICE:
If
you
need
a
new cap, be sure to get the right
type. Your dealer can get one for you.
If
you
get
the wrong type, it may not fit or have proper
venting, and
your
fuel tank and emissions system
might be damaged.

oil, coolant, brake fluid, windshield washer and
other fluids, and plastic or rubber.
