Run a dash diagnostic system check and it would tell you if your cap was off. Or, you could just go check I guess.

Its your GAS CAP...and its going to throw an EVAP code at the computer cause the pressure is off...just take your cap off and re-tighten it...

Light should go away!

If it is indeed the gas cap tightening it will not necessarily make the light disappear quickly. It will have to run the evap monitor once or twice and that can take a while.
