OT: Gasoline fill-up [again] (was Re: [AT] Subdivision Development

[Almost-Running Deere]

I have found that when the check engine light comes on  from no gas cap to 
disconnect the battery for 5 min or so after replacing the cap.  If that is 
the only problem, reprogram you radio and set your clock and that little red 
light will stay off!
