The CEL could be anything. Plug a code reader into it and let us know what the number is to start. Gas cap tight?

Agree with Rex

Throwing parts in is no good unless you have a direction to throw them in.

I hope you get this worked out

I recalled a couple years ago the CEL came on and my non-scientific corrective action was to race it to 6000 rpm. The light came off. Not certain if I was lucky, or perhaps cleared something out of the emissions system. Anyway... it didn't work this time. Autozone plugged it in for a P1411 and P0410 (Air Injection Control Solenoid).

I just left the gas station for what I believe is my second fill-up since the light came on. As I pulled away I noticed the light off. Maybe something with the cap??? In any event I am over due for an 80K service anyway.....
