[Shotimes] Why does the CE light

[Michael S Wojton]

The fuel system is considered a closed and pressurized system.  If the
cap is not tight, the computer sees that as a leak.  And a potential way
for gasoline vapors to escape and poison our atmosphere, making it
hard for all living things to survive.

Ok.  I got carried away.  But the theory makes sense, no?
