ORIGINAL: lucki96gt

Recently when I start my car This light on the far right side it looks like a trash can with an "X" in it. I have tried to look it up but the only thing I found was that a guy said if I had a plastic intake that it could be cracked. I do have a plastic intake but it is not leaking anywhere. the light only comes on for 1 to 2 mins only after start up once i start driving, the float tube works and everything. and the tank is full if anyone knows what it could be please let me know. and how bad is it, how long can I go efore replacing it if it is cracked?
If its right to the right of the E brake light, then its the light for the fuel cap. You may have a aftermarket overlay for your guage cluster. On the original overlay, that light would read "check fuel cap"

That may be true for you 04 Gt but on a 96 like mine its the coolant. We don't have any little light for the fuel cap
