Yeah negative is better. as mentioned earlier, start up, turn all the way left, all the way right, drive away.
This code is not exclusive to the gas cap, but even a deaelr would start there. If you get a new cap, and are sure you tighten it correctly every time, bring it in to a dealer who can drop the gas tank as there is a sensor in there as well.

Excellent thread- thanks to everyone for all the info. I had a CEL that kept popping up despite several battery disconnect/reconnect episodes. The dealer read it as a P0456 code but was pretty useles at giving advice. I changed the gas cap as suggested in this thread, re-set the ECU by disconnecting the battery. The CEL is gonne. I'm happy.
