This is really tough because it could be your gas cap, but it could be anything else, too. I have had this code for going on three years now. Short of a smoke test (which I refuse to pay for), I can't think of another diagnostic except the part swap method, which is ridiculously expensive. Good luck, and if you figure it out let us know.
