Check engine light

[Boris]

Hi,

I forgot to put back the gas tank cap - after filling up. Check engine light
showed up. I was driving like that for 2 days - noticed it only today.
Question: is it likely that there's some permanent damage to the car? Do I
need to do anything (besides putting back the gas cap, of course)?

Thanks,
Boris

Put the cap back on and in a couple days of driving the light will go
out.
